Korean Adoptees from the Out of the Margins: Asian American Movement Building Conference which was held at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Starting on the left are Rachel Sisco, Senator Hoon-Yung Hopgood who was elected to represent the Downriver communities of Southeast Michigan following three terms in the Michigan state assembly, and the last girl I cannot recall her name since it is not listed.
All shared their stories as adoptees which varied; however, they all share the same idea that as international adoptees, introduction to cultural heritage is important when an adoptee needs exposure to discussions about race, discrimination and prejudice and know how to respond positively.
