The story I wrote about a sundown town in southern Illinois published in late 2019. Four years later it’s still generating conversation & the topic continues to be deeply researched by University of Michigan History Labs program + Tougaloo1869 here: justice.tougaloo.edu/sundown-towns/ Ty Where We Live!

Adoptees may have supportive and loving parents, but their foundation feels like shifting sand. They don’t have what Angela Tucker calls the biological privilege non-adopted people have. Connecticut Public #AdopteeVoices buff.ly/47UJzvM

It's rare that a book comes along and so dramatically expands my perspective as much as Gretchen Sisson's forthcoming book, about adoption, did. She centers voices we rarely hear in adoption narratives: American birth mothers relinquishing their infants motherjones.com/politics/2024/…

“The roots of racism in the US run deep, and perhaps nowhere is this shown more starkly than in the history of transracial adoption. Black children adopted into white families were losing their connection to Black culture.”—Angela Tucker #BHM beacon.org/You-Should-Be-…

“I advocate that we can always have open adoptions for every single adoption, even those where a birth parent is deceased, those where a birth parent is truly unsafe, or they’re in jail.”—Angela Tucker on Family Proclamations 🌈 #AdopteeVoices buff.ly/3Wf4lDr
