The Intersection of Asian Culture & Disability

Susanna Peace Lovell shares the story of her experiences growing up mixed-race, and about the joys, heartbreaks, and cultural realities of raising her daughter Arizona to know her extended family in Taiwan.  Arizona has multiple challenges and diagnoses including autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, anxiety and myriad food allergies. This is a rich and powerful episode, opening the door for desperately needed conversations about the relationship between race, culture, and disability.
