Note from Susan:
I've had the honor of adding my voice to the voices of others who
are part of the complex structure of adoption. RG Adoption Consulting
asked me to be a part of their programming for this month, and asked
great questions for adoptees, adoptive parents,
birth parents and others involved in this process.
The question I chose to answer was "What was the most challenging
for you as an adoptee?" Please click on the link to listen to the
interview, labeled "Through
the Eyes of an Adoptee".
As an American Indian transracial
adooptee, this question allowed for a lot of discussion of history,
policy and the clash when American Indian children are placed in
non-Native families. If you are interested in sharing this
video, please do!
All my best for your interest in this story.
Susan
