Adoptionland: From Orphans to Activists (Adoption Books for Adults)

Ever wondered what itâ€™s like to be adopted? This anthology begins with personal accounts and then shifts to a birdâ€™s eye view on adoption from domestic, intercountry and transracial adoptees who are now adoptee rights activists. Along with adopted people, this collection also includes the voices of mothers and a father from the Baby Scoop Era, a modern-day mother who almost lost her child to adoption, and ends with the experience of an adoption investigator from Against Child Trafficking. These stories are usually abandoned by the very industry that professes to work for the â€œbest interest of children,â€ â€œchild protection,â€ and for families. However, according to adopted people who were scattered across nations as children, these represent typical human rights issues that have been ignored for too long. For many years, adopted people have just dealt with such matters alone, not knowing that all of usâ€”as a communityâ€”have a great deal in common.
