Adoption Truth and Transparency Worldwide is a unique activist organization that uses various mediums to fulfill its mission to find resources, scrutinize, investigate, critique adoption policies and procedures, raise awareness, and share diverse adoption experiences. Simply put their goal is to create a place that gives a well-rounded perspective on the adoption processes and policies. They aren’t necessarily activist for orphans per se, however they are activist that are often categorized as a part of the anti-adoption movement with a goal to remove the veil off of adoption.
The organization was interestingly created by adoptees who speak up against the present adoption system. They work together to empower each other and create change. They even insist on not utilizing the term “birth mother” because it belittles many victims who were forced into giving up their children due to various causes.
They utilize various forms of mediums to fulfill their mission. The one that drew my attention the most was their utilization of a Facebook page. They use this social media website as a place where orphans, birth mothers, the adopters, and all other players in the adoption process can come and share their experiences. They utilize social media in a way to show to support and almost like an online meeting space. It is a beautiful example of how the activist may creatively utilize social media to further their cause.
The Truth and Transparency Worldwide organization also utilized the medium of literature. They have a book entitled AdoptionLand. It is another way to share their information on a worldwide and mass produced way.
