The BIPOC Adoptee Conversations continue with Lucy Sheen! Lucy joins Patrick from across the pond to talk about being one of 106 Hong Kong foundlings, the importance of adoptees being able to voice their own lived experiences themselves, and why filmmakers and creatives have to do more than just "rely on the experts they know" when telling transracial adoptee stories.

About The BIPOC Adoptee Conversations
For too long, Adoptees have not been the authors of our own stories. That’s changing, and this month we’re joining the discourse to be part of that change. Together with BIPOC Adoptees, we are reclaiming our narratives by honing in on specific areas of the BIPOC Adoptee experience that need to be amplified right now through this five-part series. This is a brave space for Adoptees to share with the world what we know is needed both inside and outside our community. These are THE BIPOC ADOPTEE CONVERSATIONS.
