{"product_id":"in-their-own-voices-rhonda-roorda-9780231118293","title":"In Their Own Voices: Transracial Adoptees Tell Their Stories","description":"Nearly forty years after researchers first sought to determine the effects, if any, on children adopted by families whose racial or ethnic background differed from their own, the debate over transracial adoption continues. In this collection of interviews conducted with black and biracial young adults who were adopted by white parents, the authors present the personal stories of two dozen individuals who hail from a wide range of religious, economic, political, and professional backgrounds. How does the experience affect their racial and social identities, their choice of friends and marital partners, and their lifestyles? In addition to interviews, the book includes overviews of both the history and current legal status of transracial adoption.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rhonda Roorda, Rita James Simon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0231118295\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780231118293\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Columbia University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.03h x 6.08w x 0.86d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBlack Issues Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2001 pg. 79","brand":"Rhonda Roorda","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988099498239,"sku":"9780231118293","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7620926a-21a5-494b-ba1c-3c0c52483f5f.jpg?v=1683292616","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/in-their-own-voices-rhonda-roorda-9780231118293","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
