This study explores the process by which interracial spouses construct narratives about their racial histories, identities, and experiences in their relationship together. Ten black-white couples were interviewed individually and conjointly. The results reflected interracial spouses' experience of their life together, their perception of others' perceptions of them, and their unique processes of negotiating racial, gender, and class differences. Black spouses, compared with white spouses, demonstrated a greater awareness of and sensitivity to social resistance to interracial couples, and black spouses' familial and personal histories were sometimes relegated to silence in the couple relationship. I discuss recommendations for marriage and family therapists working with interracial spouses.
本研究探讨了异族配偶共同构建关于他们种族历史、身份以及在关系中的经历的叙事过程。对十对黑白配偶进行了单独和联合访谈。结果反映了异族配偶共同生活的经历、他们对他人对自己看法的认知,以及他们协商种族、性别和阶级差异的独特过程。与白人配偶相比,黑人配偶对异族伴侣关系所面临的社会阻力有更强的意识和敏感度,并且在伴侣关系中,黑人配偶的家庭和个人历史有时会被置于沉默状态。我讨论了为与异族配偶合作的婚姻和家庭治疗师提供的建议。
