Chapter 1 Life After IVF, Conceiving Christian America; Embryo Adotion and Reproductive Politics
Please join Lynn Grubb and I as we discuss Chapter 1 of Conceiving Christian America; Embryo Adoption and Reproductive Politics by Risa Cromer, and the intersection with the impact on adoptees. While embryo adoption is not legally adoption, but rather a property transfer, the fertility industry deliberately uses the language of adoption to obscure this fact.
Lynn can be found online as The Adopted Genealogist, and is the President of the Adoptee Rights Coalition. Home | ARC (adopteerightscoalition.com) Ande Stanley is a Late-Discovery, transnational, same race adopted person.
