Pornography based on the ethnicity of performers or interracial pornography is pornography that depicts Human sexual behavior between performers of different ethnic groups. Although ethnic pornography has always been a genre of pornography, it began growing in visibility during the 1980s as attitudes towards interracial sexual relationships became more relaxed. Its popularity grew considerably during the 1990s, and in the 2000s it has become a prominent aspect of pornography. Ethnic pornography typically employs ethnic and racial stereotypes in its depiction of performers.
