Thanks to @adoptedfeelspodcast for this episode!
I'm currently reading Gabrielle Glaser's book, American Baby and I can only read it in bits because it is so heartbreaking. But as heartbreaking as it is to read about Margaret, George, and their son Stephen/David - I am filled with anger at the social workers who lied, manipulated, coerced, and committed every ethical professional violation.
Ok, wading in to the fray. Long before the Toyota ad featuring Paralympic athlete and adoptee Jessica Long, I wrote about her and other adoptee poster children for Gazillion Voices. Link to article in bio.
Join me on Tuesday, 2/2 at 4 PM EST for an exposé hosted by @RCRChoice about the hidden stories of adoption that reflect connections with crisis pregnancy centers, denial of services to LGBTQ+ applicants, and transracial adoptions to build an army of conservative Christians for God. Link in bio!
On deck.
