YouTube Description
as posted by the channelRachel Nolan, historian of Latin America at Boston University’s Pardee School of Global Studies, discusses her recent book Until I Find You: Disappeared Children and Coercive Adoptions in Guatemala.
Rachel Nolan then joins the program to discuss her book on the crisis of the disappeared children in Guatemala, and how little media coverage and understanding is attached to this subject. All of this in the backdrop of a severe and violent sectarian conflict within the country, which led to the conditions from which disappearances and the for-profit adoption boom out of Central and South America began to increase and expand. Rachel dives into the number of organizations that have participated in the adoption racket out of Guatemala, the erasure of birth parents stories when it comes to understanding the “adoption triad” (birth parents, adoptee, & adopted parents), the idea of the “white savior” complex and how that intersects with these types of adoptions/dismissals of indigenous communities both domestically in the U.S. and abroad, as well as how, if at all, Trump’s family separation policies impacted this industry.
