Ever wondered what it's like to be adopted? This anthology begins with personal accounts and then shifts to a bird'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 "best interest of children," "child protection," 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 us—as a community—have a great deal in common.

A stunning novel of hopes and dreams, guilt and love—a book that offers a resonant new definition of what it means to be American and "illuminates the lives behind the current debates about Latino immigration" (The New York Times Book Review). When fifteen-year-old Maribel Rivera sustains a terrible injury, the Riveras leave behind a comfortable life in Mexico and risk everything to come to the United States so that Maribel can have the care she needs. Once they arrive, it’s not long before Maribel attracts the attention of Mayor Toro, the son of one of their new neighbors, who sees a kindred spirit in this beautiful, damaged outsider. Their love story sets in motion events that will have profound repercussions for everyone involved. Here Henríquez seamlessly interweaves the story of these star-crossed lovers, and of the Rivera and Toro families, with the testimonials of men and women who have come to the United States from all over Latin America.

"We don't have adoption issues; we have an issue with adoption." The author offers a rare perspective based on the natural law of identity and equal rights. In 2019, the cofounder of Adoption Truth and Transparency Worldwide Network asked adoptees a series of questions in a preliminary survey. Adopted people of all ages, backgrounds, and circumstances gave responses based on decades of adoption experiences. From every continent, individuals ranging in age from under 18 to over 70 answered. The survey results have astounded anyone willing to listen, proving the point that the industry needs to be placed under a microscope and scrutinized. For change to happen, adopted people should first be given rights to their origin, but adoption profiteers will never admit that family, biological next of kin, and culture matter. They've been pushing for the "right to adopt" over acknowledging the innate and natural right to family.
