Description

On this episode of Together by AGCI, we hear from Gina Fimbel and Tiffany Henness from Be the Bridge, to help us have a conversation about adoption, race, and faith, and how we can start moving forward. Be the Bridge is a community of experts on the issues of racial brokenness and systemic injustice in our world. Founded in 2016, by speaker, author, reconciler, and bridge-builder, Latasha Morrison, Be the Bridge is committed to educating people on cultural intelligence and racial literacy. It is an education platform and resource to encourage racial reconciliation among all ethnicities, to promote racial unity in America, and to equip others to do the same.Tiffany is a biracial Asian/white, transracial adoptee. She has experienced and learned how to articulate what it’s like to be the child that adoption is meant to help. She works as a consultant and writer for Be the Bridge. Gina is the Transracial Adoption Educator and Operations Assistant at Be the Bridge, as well as an adoptive mom. I should mention that Tiffany is not an AGCI adoptee and Gina is not an AGCI adoptive mom, but we want to keep reaching outside of ourselves as a ministry to gain more perspective and understanding. We want to believe at AGCI that there’s greater understanding of the transracial adoption experience, the healing process involved in that.For resources mentioned in this episode you can visit the following: Be the Bridge Transracial Adoption: Foundational Principles for Healthy Cross-Race Parenting (PDF Download)Tiffany's Blog + Website
