The United States prefers the term melting pot. Both nations have long used the image of the mulatta to push skewed cultural narratives. Highlighting the prevalence of mixed- race women of African and European descent, the two countries claim to have perfected racial representation-- all the while ignoring the racialization, hypersexualization, and white supremacy that the mulatta narrative creates.
