Ep. 71 Gretchen Sisson: Relinquished: The politics of Adoption and the privilege of American Motherhood
Manage episode 448218185 series 2796984
Today I have the pleasure of chatting with Dr. Gretchen Sisson about her critically acclaimed book "Relinquished: The Politics of Adoption and the Privilege of American Motherhood." Gretchen is a sociologist with Advancing New Standards in Reproductive Health at the University of California, San Francisco, where she studies adoption and abortion.
We discuss:
-How national crisis create opportunities for adoption
-The views of white mothers on relinquishing their biracial children to white adopters
-The laws behind kinship care and valuing children staying in their original culture
-The definition of transracial adoption
-Why there is a national interest to increase adoption
-The impact of overturning of Roe v Wade on the adoption industry
-Laws that have been implemented to help adoptees retrieve their biological histories
- Project 2025
And finally I ask the question “Is adoption child centered” and what Gretchen will enlighten you.
