Join us for a Faculty Author Series talk featuring Asistant Professor of History and Critical Race and Ethnic Studies, Dr. Kit Myers. In this talk, Myers will discuss his recent book, The Violence of Love: Race, Family, and Adoption in the United States. The book examines narratives surrounding adoption, and challenges the idea that adoption is a solely loving act that benefits birth parents, adopted individuals, and adoptive parents – a narrative that is especially pervasive with transracial and transnational adoptions.  

 

Registration is encouraged as seating is limited. Light refreshments provided. We will have a giveaway of a few copies of the book during the event.
