	Description:		When Gail Lukasik was growing up in the US, she'd always wondered about her mother's quirky habits. For instance, she always wore a light foundation before she went to bed. Years later Gail would discover that this had been one of her mother's attempts to hide the fact that she was actually multiracial and had passed as white her whole life. Gail spoke to Outlook’s Emily Webb about why her mother had tried so hard to hide the truth from her family.
