Collaborative autoethnography analyzes personal experiences in the context of the surrounding culture. As collaborative autoethnography, Learning to Disclose is autobiographic, ethnographic, and interactive. Autoethnography is a critical research method with the âautoâ meaning the self, âethnoâ meaning culture, and âgraphyâ meaning writing; it uses personal experiences to critically examine sociohistorical grand narratives and discourses in which we find ourselves embedded. This is something that autobiography and memoir often does not do. We write dialogue using social imagination to understand our lives through the global, national, and local histories of the places and spaces we lived, worked, traveled, and called home. (Mills, 2000)
Rebecca Schwartz holds a BS in communications and a MS in international affairs from New York University. Her work as a humanitarian encompassed implementing emergency response programs in developing countries in partnership with USAID, the European Union and the United Nations. She is currently an adjunct lecturer at LaGuardia Community College.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Together, we want to acknowledge Rebeccaâs father, Paul, her brothers and Joniâs sons, Nathan and Matthew as well as their wives Sarah and Sabrina. Although they may appear only sporadically in this book, their love, spirit, and soul are everywhere in who we are and who we have become.
To family members, who answered our queries about the Minnetonka chapter, Joniâs sister and Rebeccaâs aunt, Elsie Machtemes and to Joniâs brother and Rebeccaâs uncle, Denny Hlavacek who we asked to recall a few memories â thank you. To family members, Kathy Oliphant, Director of Teaching and Learning at Waconia Public Schools who provided background on education in Minnesota, and to Clark Machtemes, a Minnesota musician and artist, who gave us direction for research; you are both always willing to support and help; it means a lot. Thanks to the Excelsior Historical Society especially Steve Kobs who verified with archival materials W.E.B. Duboisâs summer on Lake Minnetonka and directed us to playwright Kim Hines who wrote, Summer in the Shadows, about Dubois in Minnesota. Kim, thank you for taking the time to talk, answer questions, pick your brain, and read your writing; it made a difference both personally and in the writing.

The Czech chapter was aided by the insights and conversation with Mark Bruner, a career missionary to Slovakia and the Czech Republic and a dear friend. To our friends in Uganda, thank you, Irene, for taking such good care of us in Gulu. Your food, attention, kindness, and work made space for thinking, feeling and writing. Kirunda Muzamiru the best safari guide in Uganda by far; your friendship and expertise mean the world to us. To Grace Amiya, your tailoring class at Gulu Women Prison is not only an act of love but a creative inspiration.
A special thanks to the original members of our Tuesday evening Restoration Writing Group in Bed Sty; John Proctor, Sylvester (Sonny) Jackson, Carolina Soto, Jackie Cangro, Marvin Wade, and Michael Colbert for giving us a community of writers to belong to. The 2018 National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Global Cities August Seminar at LaGuardia Community College, City University of New York: Tuli Chatterji, Sorin Cucu, Rondee Gaines, Anita Baksh, Rebecca Tally, Sonia Rodriguez, Olga Aksakalova, Allia Abdullah-Matta, Laura Tanenbaum, Nichole Shippen, Karen Miller, and Chris Schmidt read and gave us specific feedback early on. Your suggested readings and keen criticism was invaluable.
Cathy Powell without your editing and organizing skills this book would not be. You keep us in order. Thank you, dear friend. The cover design is by Emily Gallagher and Robert Pollock who embraced our story as we embraced them.
To friends and mentors who journeyed with Rebecca during critical transitionary periods in Haiti, Congo and Uganda and continue to be strong moral and emotional support: Pierre and Carolyn Julien; Viviane Fils Aime; and Jiesha Perkins; Jen Silen, and Myonawai Artis, and Crystal Burrey.
Joni wants to thank Marvin Wade, Dario Pena, P. Harris and R. Watson who read chapters at the Queensboro Writing Group and made her believe that this story could have meaning across the human experience. Thanks to all the Queensboro Correctional Facility writing group members who carefully read drafts, gave encouragement, made suggestions, and embraced our stories.
To Joniâs lifelong friends Sara Jorgensen Levy and Avril (Birdie) DeJesus who read chapters in the Bremen, Maine cabin in the woods in front of the fireplace and with a bottle of wine. The more we drank the better the manuscript seemed. And to my dear friends, Damaris Miranda and Valerie Noel, who journeyed with us in the beginning; they know how to be a friend. To Andrea Emmanuel and Kurt Sealey for loving books and writing as I do and sharing this experience with me. Thank you, John Chaney, for your love, your support, your gentlenessâfor being there and being youâyou are a great gift from God. And to our cat, History, who kept me company during copyediting.

INTRODUCTION
This is soul work. A mother and daughter collaborative autoethnography engaging the social imagination and the emotional journey of learning to disclose. It is reflection on the places and histories that shaped us through transracial adoption.
If readers are looking for a memoir or a straightforward adoption story, this book is not it. Neither is it a research text on transracial adoption nor an autobiography. It is not a diary, a happy ever after story of how God worked in our lives, or a White savior story. And it is not the whole story.
Collaborative autoethnography analyzes personal experiences in the context of the surrounding culture. As collaborative autoethnography, Learning to Disclose is autobiographic, ethnographic, and interactive. Autoethnography is a critical research method with the âautoâ meaning the self, âethnoâ meaning culture, and âgraphyâ meaning writing; it uses personal experiences to critically examine sociohistorical grand narratives and discourses in which we find ourselves embedded. This is something that autobiography and memoir often does not do. We write dialogue using social imagination to understand our lives through the global, national, and local histories of the places and spaces we lived, worked, traveled, and called home. (Mills, 2000)

Learning to Disclose: A Journey of Transracial Adoption Hardcover â Nov. 17 2020
Purchase options and add-ons.
Joni and Rebecca Schwartz in their collaborative autoethnography, Learning to Disclose: A Journey of Transracial Adoption , are doing soul work. This adult white mother and black daughter reflect and dialogue around the places and histories that shaped their relationship. Through three voices: the voice of critical history, the daughter and the mother, the co-authors excavate the past to see if and how it lives in their present. In an intriguing mix of critical history of places like Port-au-Prince, Haiti and Gulu, Uganda as well as lesser-known narratives of W.E.B. Dubois, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and Shirley Chisholm, the co-authors tell their own personal and moving stories of becoming mother and daughter engaging such topics as racial identity, disclosure, racial appropriation, colonialism, and the complex history of transracial adoption.
For anyone interested in racial identity in the complex world of blended families and adult mother and daughter relationships, this is a must read. This book is ideal for all humanities and social science courses across disciplines from sociology, education, qualitative research, and social work to race and communication studies. In this era of strained and confusing racial dialogue, this book is refreshing in its honesty, moving in its personal narratives, and instructive in its engagement in how the historical lives in the social imagination of our present lives and relationships.

Rarely has the legal world considered how and where adult adoptees fit in the dialogue about transracial adoption. Researchers and adoptive parents have dominated the field with their own agendas about the children who are treated simultaneously as consumer goods and children. Often the question has been how to stop international adoption or how to continue it more ethically. As children grow up and have to wrestle with questions of belonging and race, racial identity becomes increasingly salient for transracial adoptees and can result in higher rates of depression, eating disorders, and low self-esteem. Despite studies showing the detrimental effects of poor racial identity development for Asian adoptees, there may be little possibility of a legal intervention for this critical developmental process. It is time for the legal world and the Asian American community to grapple with the question of racial identity development, whether we truly value racial identity as a possible source of healing for transracial adoptees, and how effective the legal tools available are in delivering resources for racial identity development. In imagining how a legal solution could be crafted to take into account the social and cultural nuances of racial identity development, I look to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) youth raised by heterosexual parents and white LGBT families who adopt Asian children. Although race and orientation are not fungible, there are similarities in the groups' experiences that suggest the intersection of LGBT and Asian adoptees may be a model in building understanding of adoptees' desire for a valued racial identity.

In the community of adoption and throughout its related literature, the needs and experiences of âinvisibleâ or non-adopted children in transracial families have been largely overlooked. This study attempts to address that void by documenting the meaning and influences of transracial adoption in the lives of twelve non-adopted white adults who grew up with a transracially adopted brother or sister. The research used discourse analysis to document the narrative identities of the non-adopted siblings as they were enacted during interviews about transracial adoption. Five composite narrative identities are discussed, with distinctions made between those that were characterized as transracialized or un-transracialized. Transracialization is presented as a participantâs active engagement with discourses of race and adoption in ways that may result in âpost- whiteâ identities in non-adopted siblings. Transracialization is discussed in terms of its benefit to members of adoptive families and the professionals who serve them, including social workers, psychotherapists, and educators. Implications for the community of adoption and the field of education are offered, along with recommendations for future research.
Child welfare
Maria Vidal De Haymes
The gap between the number of children of color in care and the recruitment of minority foster and adoptive homes has triggered growing support for transracial adoption, culminating in the Multi-Ethnic Placement Act (MEPA) and the Interethnic Adoption Provisions (IEP) legislation. Although MEPA and IEP focus on eliminating barriers to transracial placements, they do not address support for families that choose to adopt transracially. A lack of professional literature exists in this area. This study explores a number of trans-racial placements and adoptions, with the goal of identifying, from the perspective of the families interviewed, potential services that would enhance such placements and adoptions.
