PAD2014: Day 7

Late again! But it's okay. Today's picture is of a Jamaican beef patty from a local Caribean bakery! 

Noms ;)

PAD2014: Day 6

So I'm cheating, I'm uploading yesterday's picture halfway through today. Additionally, it's from a documentary I watched around 1 a.m. this morning, but, my rules!

This picture is a screen grab from a documentary titled "Somewhere Between," which follows the stories of teenage girls who were each adopted from China as babies or toddlers. It stuck out to me while scrolling through the documentary offerings of Netflix, and as someone who has always been interested in issues of race and cultural identity, I'm so happy I watched it! 

Each of the girls had different stories, and  it was interesting to watch them struggle to be empowered against the term "abandoned."

It was completely worth going to bed at 3 a.m.
