In recent years they have become a leader in the movement to change the system.

It saddens me that so many women who regard themselves as feminists seem to be totally indifferent to birth mother grief or the reality of coerced adoptions. The narrative of savior APs is deeply ingrained in our society and our culture.

I also worry about the story getting lost after all the BSE survivors are gone.
