When They Were Young: Amplifying Voices of Adoptees

Ep. 18 (Part 2) Schai Belair Toussaint Schairer: Adoptee Interview! "My Brothers With Good Souls"


Listen Later

Part of the Adoptive parent conversation series!

We are back withe Schai who graced us in episode 4  with her poetry.  This is the conclusion of Schai’s conversation with her brothers Manny and Jaccen. They go in about their own individual adoption journeys and give us some advice on how we can do adoption better. At the very end I check in with Schai to see how she thought the interview went, so stay tuned for that. This trio is incredibly inspiring! I love how they support and uplift one another. Biological family or not, their love is steadfast.
