I november 1986 fyllde Anton Nilson 99 år. Han deltog 1908 i ett av de mest omtalade politiska attentat som utförts i Sverige. Nämligen sprängningen av skonerten Amalthea i Malmö hamn. Han dömdes samma år till döden, men straffet verkställdes inte. Istället benådades han och efter frigivningen engagerade sig Anton Nilson i den ryska revolutionen. Idag omtalas han som "Sveriges mest kände politiske terrorist". Själv menar han sig dock vara emot alla former av våld och vill inte kännas vid detta epitet. Däremot ångrar han inte attentatet i Malmö.

Rottenikken - Rolf Erling Knutsen - är en av de märkligaste personerna i norsk rättshistoria." Knutsen härjade som värst i norska Telemark när landet var under tysk ockupation. Den norska allmänheten lärde känna honom genom sensationellt dramatiska tidningsartiklar, och hans våldsamma rykte användes av nazisterna i skrämselpropagandan mot den norska motståndsrörelsen.

Under 1970- och 1980-talet gick debatten om narkotika, och i synnerhet hasch, varm i Danmark. I Christiania skedde handeln på öppen gata, vilket under denna tid oroade de nordiska grannländerna.

Group dynamics can be based on the simplest forms of physical and cultural distinctions, and those who don't quite fit the mold of a group can feel like outsiders. The reality is none of us fit into a box. We're all unique with a mixed background—socially, culturally, experientially. For some of us, like Eli Bonilla Jr., we are also mixed ethnically. No one person is an identical copy of anyone else. In Mixed, Eli questions the basis of unity and inclusion and explores the multiple components of our identity.
