race-mixing
Cross-ethnic union
Race-mixing refers to sexual relationships, marriage, or reproduction between people of different racial backgrounds.
The term carries a clinical, often disapproving tone—it was common in arguments against interracial unions, particularly during segregation: Laws against race-mixing remained on the books in some states until 1967.
Today it appears mainly in historical contexts or among those who oppose such unions.
