This episode of the Destinations Podcast with Doni Aldine features genetic counselor Brianne Kirkpatrick Williams.

"There are many different people impacted by one person's conception," she says. "And everybody needs support because you can't support the person in the middle if you aren't understanding everyone around them and the type of experience that they're having." In working with people who have been adopted, Kirkpatrick Williams has also worked with adoptive parents. She has witnessed a lot of similar experiences and emotions and some that are very different. "What I've learned with working with people on all different sides is that finding your community and other people who understand is the number one most important thing," she says, "followed by working with a counselor, a therapist, or a coach when the time is right for that person. And understanding that Rome wasn't built in a day."

In this episode, Doni and Dr. Rhonda chat with Emilio Sasamu Thomas about the Garifuna history and culture. A professional musician and educator, Sasamu is the youngest member of the Garifuna Collective, a band based in Belize. He plays the guitar, piano, and a variety of percussion instruments. Sasamu talks about how the Garifuna people are a mixture of indigenous and African, and about the various tales of how Africans arrived on the shores of the Western Hemisphere. He also talks about his efforts to preserve the Garifuna culture, particularly the importance of preserving the Garifuna language, which even though it may be spoken among small groups around Central America, it's still "alive." "The Garifuna language is alive, even if it's just five people who speak it, the mere fact remains that it is alive," he says. "And so our responsibility now is to teach the other generation to continue the language. We must recognize that we have a responsibility, and saying that it's dying instead of doing something about it means that we intend to let it die."
