Digging to America
![A Brief History Of Seven Killings]()
![A Broken People's Playlist]()
Digging to America is a story set in Baltimore, Maryland about two very different families’ experiences with adoption and their relationships with each other. Sami and Ziba Yazdan, an Iranian-American couple, and Brad and Bitsy Dickinson-Donaldson, an all-American suburban couple, meet at the airport on the day their adopted infant daughters arrive from Korea.
The differences between the two families are apparent from the beginning, especially in the way each couple decides to raise their daughters. Brad and Bitsy try not to Americanize their daughter, Jin-Ho; they keep her Korean name and teach her about Korean culture as she grows up. Sami and Ziba, on the other hand, choose to raise their daughter Susan as an American.
