Episode notes
Adam is joined by guests Joy Alessi, Dr. Diane Kunz, Dan Berger, and Emily Howe in the third and final installment of our series on the issue of Adoptees Without Citizenship. In this part, Diane and Dan walk us through a quick history of immigration in modern American history, starting in the 1950's and taking us up to the current day. They, with added context from Joy and Adam, explain how the legal framework of immigration is related to the issue of naturalization aka citizenship. In the second half, Emily discusses the important concepts of legitimization of a child, what is a family in the eyes of the law, and how the failed naturalization of adopted children should be an easy problem to fix. Finally, Joy and Adam give their closing remarks on this podcast series project.
