Half-caste is a term used for individuals of multiracial descent.[1] Terms such as half-caste, caste, quarter-caste and mix-breed were used by colonial officials in the British Empire during their classification of indigenous populations, and in Australia used during the Australian government's pursuit of a policy of assimilation.[2] In Latin America, the equivalent term for half-castes was Cholo and Zambo.[3] Some people now consider the term offensive.
