@DLopezsocialwrk The US is a prolific "receiving" country that pressures the world's BIPOC women for their children, then tells those displaced kids to be grateful for their "better life." White social workers have historically been and continue to be key in this form of human trafficking. 2/2

@CalltoActivism Robbie is too young to give informed consent. And yet you showed his picture and told the world he was severely abused, neglected, in foster care, and then permanently displaced from his family via adoption. Stop the trauma and adoption porn. This is reprehensible.

@JeffreyMWard I was in FL a few weeks ago and also got the grey-headed swamphen as a lifer! It's an invasive species, but beautiful nonetheless.

@Joyhenderson78 Many of us who were born into Indigenous families couldn't provide such info, even if we wanted to, because we were taken from our families as babies/children by lawyers, judges, churches & all people who participate in adoption. Our identities & ancestry were erased & replaced.

@Domestic_Supply File a FOIA request. Also, NY state keeps excellent records. If anything was processed there through a County Clerk, call them and ask them for whatever they have on file. For a small fee, they will send it. At least they have done in the past.
