We the Experts: Adoptee Storytellers
March’s We the Experts will feature Adoptee Storytellers in their myriad of roles such as authors, poets, public speakers, artists, and other creative outlets of sharing one’s story. Storytelling is so essential to our community whose narrative has historically been written by outside or adjacent counterparts with the intention of shaping the story as positive and marketable. Adoptees are a marginalized group who deserve to share their experiences just as they are, without the rainbows and unicorns. Join us as we make space for each adoptee’s authentic journey of storytelling.
