In September, I hosted a panel at the Center for LGBTQ Studies at the City University of New York’s Graduate Center. Queer/Trans/National Adoption Politics: An Adoptee Roundtable was a panel made up entirely of queer and gender nonconforming adopted people including M Cambell, Amandine Gay, and Tara Linh Leaman.
Our presentations and conversation aimed to use queer and feminist lenses to consider the systems, institutions, and experiences of adoption from adoptee-centered perspectives.
Here is Part 1 of 2 videos of the event. I’ll follow up with Part 2.
