This podcast was recorded in spring 2022 and features Asian American international adoptees at Syracuse University. Christian Buonadonna is a senior in Sport Management in the David B. Falk College of Sport and Human Dynamics, as well as a member of the AAPI Heritage Month Planning Committee. He sat down with 4th year architecture student Lia Margolis and sophomore student MaryKate Keevins, who is studying in the SI Newhouse School of Public Communications and Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs.
With courage and honesty, Christian, Lia, and MaryKate share their adoption stories so that others can learn more about their particular journeys as it relates to their identity and understanding of what it means to be adopted.
