Conceiving Christian America: introducing a new series on Snowflake Adoption, with Ande Stanley and Lynn Grubb


Listen Later

Please join me and my co-host as we explore the book Conceiving Christian America: Embryo Adoption and Reproductive Politics, by Risa Cromer. Snowflake adoptions have been on my radar for years now. We are delighted to begin a conversation on the implications of frozen embryo adoptions from the perspective of adult adopted people, with the added wieght this book provides to the discussion. In light of recent decisions such as the Alabama Supreme Court ruling designating a frozen embryo as a person, its a discussion long past due.
