      ab: This article examines the lives of African-Chinese mixed-race children in Guangzhou, China. Based on ethnographic fieldwork in the city, the article explores the negotiation of identity and belonging of these children of mixed African and Chinese heritage. Occupying a third space between two or more ethnicities and cultures, mixed African-Chinese children often develop a sense of double consciousness and hybrid identities in response to the Chinese gaze, which denies their Chineseness. The fluidity and hybridity in their identification may facilitate their integration into Chinese society by assisting them in gaining acceptance in different social spaces, such as churches, neighborhoods, and schools, but the structural marginalization they are subject to as liminal people separates them from the mainstream social groups, producing their segregated integration.
