  • Adoptive Couple vs. Baby Girl URL

    This is an interesting podcast by Radiolab. It is a story of a couple, an adopted baby girl of Cherokee heritage, and the sad history of the adoption of Indian children into white families. It is only 35 minutes long, so give it a listen during your next commute.
