AJ Cho - The BIPOC Adoptee Conversations

The BIPOC Adoptee Conversations continue with AJ Cho! AJ and Patrick talk about the impact of Nicole Chung's memoir, All You Can Ever Know, entering and exiting online adoptee community spaces, and why the "gratitude" narrative is the worst narrative. AJ also shares his experience divorcing his adoptive family.

About The BIPOC Adoptee Conversations
For too long, Adoptees have not been the authors of our own stories. That’s changing, and this month we’re joining the discourse to be part of that change. Together with BIPOC Adoptees, we are reclaiming our narratives by honing in on specific areas of the BIPOC Adoptee experience that need to be amplified right now through this five-part series. This is a brave space for Adoptees to share with the world what we know is needed both inside and outside our community. These are THE BIPOC ADOPTEE CONVERSATIONS.
