Posted on his blog today is a short video addressing oppression and adoption. What I love about John is his amazing skill of combining the straight up truth with clear thinking and beautiful ways of expressing himself.
The video has me thinking about two things right off:
- what am *I* doing right now to be an ally to my kids, my friends and the people in my communities?
- what is adultism and how do I balance an understanding of it with my understanding of a child's need for hierarchical relationships (to be free to depend and be taken care of)?
Here again is the link to his 10 minute video. At the end of the post, you'll see a link to his hour long webinar that most certainly is worth a listen or seven.
If you're an adoptive parent or considering adoption, really, go hear what John has to say.
