My Interview: ADOPTION UNCOVERED

ENTIRE INTERVIEW:  Adoption Uncovered

Photo by Daniel Torobekov

Most of us have heard bits and pieces about how poorly America has treated the Native Tribes that have lived on this land. We may not understand fully how adoption was weaponized against tribes to raise children who were brought up without a memory of their heritage and culture. As journalist Trace Lara Hentz began to look into her own past as a Native American Adoptee she began to realize how many people like her are out there and alone. This year she is embarking on a project to find out how many adoptees in America and around the world can trace their history to a Native American tribe. Listen to this interview with Trace for more information about how adoption is connected to America’s treatment of Native American tribes, and where we should go from here.

If you or someone you know is a Native American Adoptee please consider participating in “The Count 2024“. The link to access the count is here.

Find easy access to all of Trace Lara Hentz’s written works on Amazon here.
