Resumen
Las experiencias de enfrentar las adversidades entre nueve adultxs latinxs (seis mujeres y tres hombres) quienes se autoidentificaron como personas de identidad étnica mixta fueron exploradas en entrevistas individuales semiestructuradas. Lxs participantes identificaron una serie de desafíos relacionados con su identidad mixta, incluyendo experiencias de discriminación e instancias de conflicto de identidad. Lxs participantes especificaron algunos métodos para superar los desafíos que enfrentan como personas mixtas incluyendo la búsqueda de coincidencias culturales, encontrando fuerza y orgullo dentro de sus culturas, ejerciendo aceptación, y enfatizando aspectos de unx mismx dependiendo de contextos y circunstancias. Finalmente, lxs participantes compartieron experiencias de crecimiento y resiliencia relacionadas con su identidad mixta y las cuales se caracterizaron por mejores relaciones y autoestima. Los hallazgos proporcionan información detallada sobre la capacidad de recuperación en estas personas latinas de identidad mixta que pueden ser útil para comprender mejor y servir a otras personas que se identifican de manera similar.
