About the Book

Adoption: What You Should Know has been divided into four short, easy-to-read sections, revealing the making of the global system throughout time, starting in Europe, America, South Korea (Asia), and today finally, in Africa. Learn how religious folks, like Harry Holt (1954), spearheaded overseas adoption programs that have exploded into a worldwide on-demand phenomenon but blatantly ignore inherent and natural human rights (aka God's laws) for patriarchal and evangelical dreams and continue to violate the correct interpretation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC).

Most of us have heard the "positive" side of international adoption, and we've all seen viral videos of children being sent into the arms of loving Americans all over the internet. But did you know that in other parts of the world, the victims and families permanently severed because of overseas adoption view the industry as a violation of our natural, inherent, and God-given rights to family and community?

Gain a deep dive and a bird's-eye view of the hidden side of the practice, information the multi-billion industry won't tell you. The book also addresses the additional burdens faced by adopted people. Many are forced to assume new identities, separated from their siblings, and denied the legal right to reconnect with them. It critiques the adoption laws that commodify children and the bureaucratic hurdles that adopted people face throughout their lives due to aggressive marketing campaigns by child service providers of generations past.

Adoption: What You Should Know is more than just a book. It's protection. The private historical details reveal crucial information you should know before spending up to $75,000 on expensive and often hidden agency fees. This special edition uncovers what child service providers don't want you to know about the private and secretive aspects of adoption, helping protect you from falling victim to adopting a trafficked child. Inspired by a Haitian adoptee who died of heart failure after learning that he had been trafficked to France for overseas adoption but was never able to acquire justice due to the public's love affair with the practice. The researcher co-founded Adoption Truth & Transparency Worldwide Information Network (ATTWIN), an adoptee-led forum rooted in equal rights for adoptees.

ATTWIN refuses to accept funding from the lobbying efforts of profitable multi-million dollar adoption agencies. The co-founders are adopted people and are affiliated politically as "Independents." This book is NOT recommended for adoption profiteers, anti-abortion fundamentalists, evangelicals, or individuals against equal rights for adult adopted people.

*Note: Adoption: What You Should Know is the public edition of the private textbook version Adoption History: An Adoptee's Research into Child Trafficking recently updated with the results of the 2020 "Only in Adoption" survey also found in the archives at AdoptionHistory.org compiled by and for the people most impacted by overseas adoption: adoptees.
