QUOTE"
“My problem is secrecy. I believe that
perpetually secret adoptions assure un-accountability and lack of transparency.
And secret adoptions are only the tip of the iceberg. The secrecy permeates the
process: secret identities, secret parents, secret records, secret foster care
providers, secret social workers, secret judges and lawyers (all their
identities are sealed, typically), secret physicians, secret statistics and, in
the case of some adoption-oriented organizations, secret budgets and secret
boards of directors. In any social practice, when people in positions of power
hide behind masks, one can be pretty sure that they have something to hide.”
-Albert S. Wei, Special Advisor to the Bastard
Nation Executive Committee
