This year, Soojin Chung will be working as Visiting Scholar at the University of California-Berkeley Department of Ethnic Studies. There, she will be collaborating with UC Berkeley professor Carolyn Chen, investigating how the dynamic of race plays a role in the lives of Asian American adoptees. Specifically, she will examine the relationship between race and religion, focusing on the role of race in adoptees’ religious experience in American Christian homes.
