  • Community Letter Final
    A non-profit organization committed to supporting the integration of culture, identity, and life experience for adopted individuals, their families, and the greater community. June 12, 2012 President Barack Obama The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington DC, 20500 Dear President Obama, On May 8th, Kairi Shepherd, an Indian adoptee who has advanced multiple sclerosis, was issued what in effect was her death sentence: deportation to India -- a country she has not seen or known since she was adopted at 3 months old -- and consequent separation from her family and doctors. Her crimes were check fraud related to a drug habit for which she has served her time, but her punishment did not end there. Why? Under the Child Citizenship Act (CCA), Kairi is ineligible for automatic citizenship because she turned 18 before February 27, 2001. Her mother, Erlene, died of breast cancer before she could submit her daughter’s child naturalization application. Mr. President, how can America break up families like Kairi’s and others on account of the CCA’s age limit? Does love have an expiration date? As adoptee community leaders and allies, we write to express our great concern about the inhumanity of Kairi’s situation and to request the immediate withdrawal of her immigration charges and those of other adult adoptees who are detained and facing possible removal. Presently, we are aware of 40 cases of deported or detained adult adoptees as reported in the media and to overseas post-adoption service NGOs. All 40 cases involve non-violent offenses and consist mostly of controlled substance use.

  • Marking Loss, Memory, and Absence in the Korean Adoptee Diaspora A
    Double Returns: Marking Loss, Memory, and Absence in the Korean Adoptee Diaspora A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY MAIJA E. BROWN IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Margaret Werry December 2012 © Maija E Brown 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Completing my dissertation has been a long and difficult journey, and would not have been possible without an enormous amount of support from my advisor and committee, colleagues, family, and friends. I am extremely grateful to my advisor, Margaret Werry, for her insightful and pointed feedback throughout the writing process, as well as helping me to secure funding to do my fieldwork in Korea. When I began my graduate studies program, I wasn’t even aware of the possibility of looking at Asian/Asian American performance. I am grateful for Josephine Lee’s extraordinary mentorship and helping me to connect Asian American studies with theater and dance. I also am extremely fortunate to have worked with Ananya Chatterjea, whose guidance and mentorship has always pushed me to be a “thinking dancer” both in my scholarship and creative work. Lastly, Diyah Larasati, during the writing process always provided stimulating feedback on my chapters. Working at the Center for Writing has also provided me with a tremendous amount of support and an invaluable intellectual community of writers. I will forever be grateful and indebted to Kirsten Jamsen who consulted regularly with me on my writing over a period of two and half years. Her encouragement and support has meant the world to me and in the process I have learned to be a better writing consultant and more compassionate person.

    Ramsey County Law Library S U M M E R 2 0 2 0 Reading is a place to start During July and August 2020, the Ramsey County Law Library promoted titles on racial equality in response to critical events occurring in Minnesota and around the RAMSEY COUNTY LAW LIBRARY country following the death of George Floyd. The books are described in this publication. 15 KELLOGG BLVD W 1815 COURT HOUSE The provocative and informative books listed here reflect the ST. PAUL, MN 55102 challenges we all face regarding racial bias and equality. They offer perspectives and opportunities for change—and not necessarily through the court system. LIBRARY HOURS Library users may check the books out by visiting the law M-F 8:00-4:30 library on the 18th floor of the court house. Closed on County Holidays P: 651-266-8391 Two views on racism When we say that racism is systemic, it is to say that it is so embedded into our culture that we aren’t aware that it is there. That is how Ibram X. Kendi starts off his book, How to be an Antiracist. In the forward, he describes how his self-doubt and confidence was so low that he had only applied to two colleges so he’d only have to deal with two rejection letters. (He was accepted by both.) Later, as he looked back at his life, he wondered if he should have taken more history classes and paid more attention when he was growing up. One moment stands out: He recalls with chagrin that he was a young, Black, high school student presenting assumptions he had about gay men when he at a Martin Luther King, Jr.
