This is a book that I have found online about biracial people in the United States. I plan on using this article as more of a factual based source than opinion.
2) http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2695719/
The link above is a government page. It has many statistics on biracial people in the United States. Because it is a government document, I plan on using many of the statistical numbers and facts as my hard facts.
Sources For My Inquiry
Research
Personal Opinions: How Tos
All of the links below are very similar. They give their thoughts of others asking their ethinicity. These are all first person accounts that I plan on using to relate my opinion. They also have questions that many people ask, and I will compare these questions to find commonalities.

7) http://www.diversityinc.com/things-not-to-say/what-to-say-to-biracialmultiethnic-coworkers/
This article deviates slightly from the rest because it is about asking questions to biracial coworkers. It just gives a different perspective on asking about ethnicity.

This article also deviates from the main category. It is about questions that interracial coules are asks. I will relate this to my parents.
Parents
All of these links give a unique approach to biracial questioning. They are the thoughts and ideas of parents of biracial children. I want to use this to relate to my parent's own person experences.

Outsiders
These links are views of biracial people and questioning them from the ouside perspective. The author cannot directly relate, but give his/her thouights on this topic. It helps to give a different view on seeing other's ethnicity.

Fun Stuff!
These are all individual links that I plan on using to design my webpage. They tie into my topic, but are a little more comical than the others.

This is buzzfeed about the questions biracial people are asked, presented in a very funny way.

These are tumblr posts about "Mixed People Problems". I can relate to a few.

This is a satirical representation of when people are asked about their ethnicity. I think it perfect to lighten up the subject!
