This week, NüVoices editor and board member Jessie Lau speaks to returning guest Barbara Demick about her new book, Daughters of the Bamboo Grove: From China to America, a True Story of Abduction, Adoption, and Separated Twins. In this episode, Barbara describes the journey of writing about twin sisters who were born in China, forcibly separated, and finally reunited through her investigative reporting. She and Jessie discuss how the book explores the historical and political nuances regarding China's One Child Policy and Family Planning institution, as well as challenges common narratives about Chinese adoptees in the US. Barbara also zooms into the powerful, emotional moment of the sisters reuniting and the two families meeting for the first time.
