Multiracial Americans of Southern California (MASC) formed in 1987 as a nonprofit interest group focused on interracial and
intercultural issues specific to racially and culturally blended families, couples, and individuals. MASC is the sister organization
to i-Pride, and was one of several organizations involved in changing the 2000 United States Census, allowing individuals
to check more than one racial identity.
Records dating from 1987 to 2004 documenting the work of the nonprofit organization Multiracial Americans of Southern California
(MASC) in providing services and organizing conferences supporting interracial, multi-ethnic, and cross-cultural communities
through dialogue and education.
Material includes audiovisual items such as video- and audiocassette recordings, as well as organizational records, newsletters,
and ephemera documenting sponsored events, conferences, workshops, and MASC United States Census activism.
The collection has been divided into two series: 1. Organizational records, newsletters, and other material, and 2. Audiovisual.
