Grace's blog: https://redthreadbroken.wordpress.com... In this episode of the APAC Podcast, we welcome our first ever guest speaker, Grace Newton! Grace Newton is a graduate of Macalester College and a Chinese adoptee. She has interned for the Minnesota based company Land of Gazillion Adoptees LLC and served as editor for the college section of Gazillion Voices, the first adoptee led adoption magazine. Her writing has been featured in two anthologies and focuses on introducing those unrelated to adoption to a more nuanced look at the practice and aiding adoptive parents in holding discussions on race and adoption with their children as they mature.
