THOUGHTS, MUSES AND RANTS OF JAH

  I have wound up in quite a few adoption groups since joining Facebook eight years ago.     That was not my original intent for joining Facebook, but it has been an interesting ride. I discovered how much adoptees have in common, including their inherent trauma, whether it is recognized, accepted or not. I also learned that looking back with a new perspective, many kids I grew up with and befriended were also adopted. We could have been even closer friends and been there for each other if only we knew. But we were taught not to discuss being adopted. Of course, that was to protect the adoptive parents paranoia, shame, insecurities, feelings of failure and self-consciousness. It was never about the child. The child merely sought love, appreciation and approval which adoption does not guarantee. What I have learned is that most people know nothing about adoption nor why many consider it child/baby trafficking. Most terms relating to adoption are not even in their vocabular...

“November is Adoption Awareness Month. As an adoptee, the adoption trauma is a part of my life every day, all year long.

  Ron DeSantis and his ilk are banning books they consider detrimental to their concept of Christian White Supremacy out of fear that truth will continue to spread and true history recorded.   Divide and conquer has always been the motto of such deplorable people. "If you make people uniform, you can control them. If you teach people to read, and think, and question things, you lose control. So, the best idea is to separate people if you wish to maintain a monetary system. It’s called divide and conquer. By dividing people, they’re not a threat, you can control them." -Jacque Fresco It saddens me that when you attempt to explain to people why they are being kept uneducated, it seems they are not educated enough to comprehend what you are telling them. Brainwashing works. Or should I say whitewashing the brain works. MAGA Evangelical Republicans have honed this ability into an art form. I totally agree with George Carlin on most matters, but especially on this:    "Do...
