DPE 006 Daytime Parent Ed: Book Club, Cultures of Transnational Adoption by Toby Alice Volkman

This collection of essays by a half-dozen contributors, including several adoptive parents, looks at how transnational adoption creates and transforms cultures.  Topics include race and national kinship, biology and belonging and the politics of sending and receiving nations.  Corresponding children’s groups for 2- to 5-year-olds and 6- to 9-year-olds will be held at the same time as the book club.
