Episode 3: Cultural Identity and Family Ties

How do we navigate the cultural differences between our parents, our children, and us? What kinds of bonds exist between first- and second-generation Asian Americans? What kinds of disconnections arise? Ray and Michelle sit down with Tasha Jun to talk about family history, reclaiming her Korean American identity, and the role of cultural identity in her adoption journey. Tasha Jun is a melancholy dreamer, a biracial Korean American storyteller, wife to Matt, and mama to three little warriors. As long as she can remember, she's lived and stood in places where cultures collide. Writing has always been the way God has led her towards home and the hope of shalom. You can find her on Instagram (www.instagram.com/tashajunb), sign up to stay in touch and receive her free monthly notes on belonging, cultural identity, life, and faith here (https://mailchi.mp/97f670c037aa/notesfromtasha) and find more of her writing over at tashajun.com.
