There‘s a bill proposing that New York City forms add an option for multiracial folks to check all that apply like you can on the Census. Currently there are five options on New York City forms: “white, not of Hispanic origin”; “black, not of Hispanic origin”; “Hispanic”; “Asian or Pacific Islander”; and “American Indian or Alaskan Native.”  Councilwoman Margaret Chin is spearheading this effort.  She is quoted as saying: “This will allow New Yorkers to identify their heritage and be proud of it. They shouldn’t have to only check one box.”  What do you think?–Heidi Durrow
