[2nd Ed.] An important contribution to American Indian history told by
its own lost children/adult survivors, American Indian and First Nations
adoptees and family... Editors Patricia Busbee and Trace L. Hentz are
writers and adoptees who reunited with their own lost relatives. From
recent news about Baby Veronica, Canada’s 60s Scoop, and history such as
Operation Papoose, this book examines how Native American adoptees and
their families experienced adoption and were exposed to the genocidal
policies of governments who created Indian adoption projects. "Adoptees
do need a road map and that is what other adoptees have created," Hentz
said about this anthology and book series.
CALLED HOME offers even more
revelations of this hidden history of Indian child removals in North
America, their impact on Indian Country and how it impacts the adoptee
and their entire family. “We have created a body of work, a roadmap for
adoptees coming after us. Governments stole the land and stole
children. It’s time the world know,” Hentz said.

The second anthology in the
Lost Children of the Indian Adoption Projects Book Series is published
