In this week's Lab Note I talk about the importance of learning how to cook New Years food as an adoptee who grew up not knowing about Korean holidays. This year for Black History Month follow, read, and listen to Black adoptees and Former Foster Youth (FFY). Finished Read Until You Understand yesterday (fantastic!!) and started How the Word is Passed today (timely and important) today. Thanks @tamikonimura for both these recommendations. Today's blog post is a reflection on what I'm calling my adoptee genealogy - those other adoptees who supported and encouraged me in my own adoptee consciousness. I am who I am today because of these adoptees - so yes, I am name-dropping a lot! Thanks to Sandy White Hawk, John Raible, Robert O'Connor, Kim Park Nelson, @sunyungshin, Amanda Baden, Gina Samuels, Mary Mason, and @thesusanito for your friendship, mentoring, and example when I was a newbie. Happy Lunar New Year! Happy Seollal! Happy Tet! May the year of the rabbit/cat bring you many blessings and much joy!
