An evening with Frank Wu

This newsletter for the organization Families with Children from China includes an article about a presentation by Dean Frank Wu of the Law School to a group of parents from the metro Detroit and Toledo areas who have adopted children from Asian countries. "With wit and humor, Wu used examples from his own life as to how he routinely faces racially motivated comments on a daily basis," the article says. Wu talked about stereotypes and how to counter them, and he urged the audience to embrace positive aspects of their child's culture. Following his talk, he autographed copies of his book and donated sale proceeds to a non-profit organization called Half the Sky.
