If Birthright Citizenship Is Conditional, No One Is Safe - Truthdig Revising the 14th Amendment would threaten the legal foundation that allows adopted children to become U.S. citizens.

Once citizenship becomes conditional for one group, it becomes conditional for everyone whose status depends on legal interpretation rather than bloodline. Korean adoptees know this all too well. #kaad #koreanadoptee #adoption

Digital Sijo

I emigrated from Instagram after 11 long years.
But morning is empty until the birds perform their sijo.
Are words just words if they cannot pierce a digital heart?

The liminality of being a Korean adoptee and shaman... HyeJin published a post on Ko-fi

2 years ago I did readings at an event in Haenam. Thinking back, the liminality of being a Korean adoptee & Korean shaman hits me: Korea being my roots but not home & South Africa the other way around

A painting by Jack Greenwood showing his other half Bella who has had her own decorating business for 24 years.
The painting has a pink hue all over and Bella stands proudly in the middle and casts a shadow on the wall behind. 
Bella is of South Korean origin but was adopted as a baby to the UK.
She wears white decorators dungarees, a blue and white striped top.
She holds a roller on a pole in her right hand. She has one foot on a pot of paint. 
There is a dust sheet covering the floor. 
In the bottom left is a Hetty hoover with a dust pan and brush leant on it and a Snoopy mug on top of it.
Behind that is a blue plastic trug and then metal stepladders casting their shadow on the wall. 
To the right of the painting is a radiator. 
In front of that is a large pink bucket full of decorating equipment. 
There's various decorating equipment strewn on the floor and a bag-for-life that has avocado illustrations on it, has a roller tray poking out of the top.
In front of that is a bag with a Shin-cup (Korean instant noodles) poking out of the top. At the front is a choco snack and some bunny bites.

"Being unable to speak the language is difficult for us. As extroverts, communication is our superpower." Cory Lemke, @adopteelinguist

That moment when one of your besties presents two tiny points that add up to a huge revelation.

Who else can relate?

An illustration with a wooden table, blue backdrop and traditional Korean architectural pieces displayed in the upper corners. At the top center is the Multnomah County seal. The caption, “HAPPY KOREAN AMERICAN DAY” is displayed in yellow. The word happy has cherry blossoms on either side of it. There is a Korean flag and American flag crossed beyond the table.

Upon the table, there are traditional Korean foods with a pair of chopsticks on a rest to the right of the main dish. 

The person writing this description is learning about Korean cuisine, and will list the dishes to the best of their ability, knowing they may be mistaken: banana milk, kimchi, kimbap, japchae, and jeongol (or Korean hot pot).

Last year, Multnomah County began celebrating Korean American Day.

As a transracial, Korean American adoptee, I grew up with American culture through the lens of white communities. But today, I am connecting to my Korean heritage in my own ways.
