The weird thing is that NOBODY questioned why they wanted black kids, their school attendance, their nutrition, living conditions and clothing etcetc. BUT as a gay single male I would be rejected instantly out of concern (sterotypical assumption) that I would segsually abuse a child - even a girl child. TOTALLY WRONG priorities and biases😡😡

That's because a lot of adoption agencies are ran by strict conservative Christians. That religion is obsessed with controlling who has children.
Conservatives or pastors should never be allowed near children.

Sadly this is actually not that rare. I grew up in a foster home and it was somewhat common for the foster parents to use the kids as personal labor.
I am talking more than chores, I’m talking remodeling properties, and extensive physical labor. While my experience was not based on race, it did seem like POC face it more!!
The foster system is partly to blame, but when we look at the treatment of children in the Amish, FDLS Mormon, and other extremists groups, we notice it is a systemic problem of children’s rights!!
solid comment.
I'm glad you're ok now :)
(at least relatively lol, I know life still sucks sometimes)
Yes, I hope you are in a much better place. I’m sorry you had to go through that
Well considering when it comes to children who ain't infants, i would assume it's less rare for non-white children to end up in horrible homes of private citizens, since the group is the hardest to find someone willing to take them in. It's hard enough as it is to find someone for a white child above a certain age(5+), so i would assume these agencies won't ask twice when someone is willing to adopt one of the non-whites, however this case by itself clearly shows that they should ask as many times as they are able. It's just wrong, but at the same time that's the reality of the situation... infants, high demand, older children not so much, this causes a lot of issues since being stuck at some foster care facility or being constantly transferred between different options ain't optimal either.
What's even worse is that the so called parents can fairly easy dismiss worries by blaming unusual behavior on past trauma, which makes much of the child abuse go under the radar. It's nuts how efficient it is, been working for CPS and when you sit with hundreds of reports, call-ins and open cases it become extremely hard to keep up with the quality of work and it's not as if there's additional resources to call upon when it become to much to handle. So you end up dealing with the more seemingly urgent and more detailed reports first and work your way down to the cases with little to go on... cases which could even be worse, since most of the time these things never even reach the eyes of the public until the child is old/brave enough to reach out by their own volition.
it's crazy how entitled anti-abortion conservatives feel to other people's children with the "just put the kid up for adoption!" line.
And none of them adopt children themselves.
Oh wow. I will now update my "days without being shocked by racists in my country" tracker

As a transracial adoptee myself, the issue of people adopting PoC children for clout and labor is one I've been trying to bring up for years. Especially the ones who adopt gaggles of kids no one could ever have enough time to properly care for and raise. Adoption in this country is barely above child trafficking, it's very much pay to play.
❤ your cries have not fallen on deaf ears. Please don't stop speaking out! We hear you ❤
I was a young runaway, and I learned real quick that foster kids and adopted kids all had the most brutal histories. All of us came from abuse, but the adopted kids would be telling stories of horrific abuse, csa, and slavery, and lived in constant fear of being forced back into the system before they turned 18. It was eye opening, cuz I came from extremely rough childhood abuse, but their stories always dwarfed mine
I do distinctly remember some black streetkids telling me about essentially being enslaved by white adopted family, and escaping that to live on the streets when they were like 12 or 13
Trans-racial? Please tell me you just mean you are trans and a person of color, not someone hijacking another race....
Trans and gender diverse experiences don’t equate with someone deciding to change their appearance to be part of a group whose experiences, community and struggles they can’t fully understand.
Unlike gender, race presents as categorised (often physical) traits that are socially constructed and understood. You can’t inherit your gender, this is internal and something individual to you - but you do inherit the social construct of race. There is also much more to one’s racial identity than physical appearance - it’s also about culture, community, connection and even trauma.
If white couples didn't adopt black kids, you would call that racism, they do adopt black kids, you also call that racism. That's why nobody takes you seriously.
This happens a lot more often that you realize. I cannot believe the number of Black adults who were "owned" by families like this and were taught to hate themselves and other Black people and cannot recover from it.

I’m praying SCOTUS doesn’t see this case. I could CERY much see them being cool with this. Conservatives will call it parents rights and it won’t be allowed to be questioned
That is one of the reasons why homeschooling in my country is not allowed. Quite often abuse of children is recognized by other children or teachers in school. During Covid the state made a special campaign to promote hotlines and other ways for children to get help because schools were closed.
Yes. That's definitely another to look at widespread home schooling with skepticism.
Such a poignant point at 6:30. We spend no money on healthcare as a country, and locally give all our money to cops.
Here in Missouri channel 4 (kmov) just did a story about hundreds of kids that are missing, right now, from the protective system
The same here in Texas. And what is the governor's response? NOTHING
@@lolalalia4119To quote a wise podcaster, TEXAS HATES KIDS!
@@lolalalia4119- Abbott respond to that? I'd be shocked.
@@lynneanderson4255 well he kinda did. He responded to the CPS reports by enacting forced pregnancies. I have a theory: foster and adoptive parents recieve financial compensation especially for taking in older children. These children are frequently shuffled from house to house. The state receives federal funding for children in CPS. Children in CPS "care" are more likely to be se* traffed, become addicts, and wind up in prison. And whoooooo has a bunch of private prisons with quotas that need to met while leasing out the prisoners to private companies?? And whooooo are the people financially invested in the megacorporations using private prisoners as modern day slaves under the 13th amendment?? Add to that the billion dollar industry equipping our open air prison with surveillance devices like ankle monitors.
Follow the money behind any human rights issue and you'll find the wealthy's sticky fingers all over it.
BTW don't buy egglands best eggs - they use prison labor
I've heard this too in my childhood of a white couple who had one white child of their own, who was treated like a normal child, and the two black adopted children were treated like slaves, beaten and couldn't eat and sleep with the rest of the family. I was terrified that me and my sister would end up in foster care with people like that. I live in the Netherlands.
This is especially bad because of conditions and race, and they for sure shouldn't have been able to adopt, but there are a lot of people who see their children, biological or not, as property and free labour.

This is why black people said that they were uncomfortable with black children being adopted by white people. These concerns were called racists by institutions.
Yet we have hundreds of black and mixed black children stating they were mistreated specifically by white adopted parents.
But no one wants to talk about that because it’s 2024 and racism doesn’t exists anymore and this is just a one off smh

41 dislikes is wild. You'd think we would all be able to agree slavery is bad. Guess not.
Bots and Trump supporters.
There have been people who have called in and argued in favor of bringing slavery back.
They walk amongst us.
It starts with child protecrive service in most cases from foster care. They don't do a very good job. These kids are dropping out of school and some 70% percent of trafficking victims were in foster care.
Yes it starts with racism of why more racialised kids are in care too
WV's foster care system takes kids away from parents at a higher rate than anywhere else in the nation, meanwhile the system is absolutely in crisis under the burden of the amount of kids in the system. Every month we have another dhhr scandal here happy to come talk about this tragedy anytime.
Also please check out black by god and their excellent reporting on this
How is this not national news worthy?
Ohh I'm sure they got "better" news like Biden's stutter or sth juicy they will convene a panel of 9 experts on

@@GirmaKassa-ip7ht yes. i think ive seen a years worth about biden's stutter. absolutely riveting news.
When you think privileged people can’t get any lower.
crazy that they were even eligible for bond/bail
Sounds about...you know
Very suspicious that we’re not hearing about the other adults involved. One couple alone can’t traffick children. Who have they been trafficking children with? Others have to be involved!
Shelters don't actually do background checks
How is that possible?
@@bretfisher7286because they aren’t adoption agencies, their last chance housing. That’s the problem with our system.
I mean... _should_ they? Because [part of] the reason a lot of people need to go to shelters is because apartments do background checks and they can't find a place that will take them.
That was a real question, I'm not trying to phrase my point as a question like some wienerbrain.
That is not what they mean by shelters. They mean emergency shelters in the foster care system where kids go before placement. They most certainly do background checks on foster parents in all states, and they are required to go through a home study to make sure their homes are adequate for children. Usually, the children may be placed in a fost-adopt home, where they foster them first and then adopt them. The system has a lot of problems and once placed in a home, social workers don’t always visit there home as often as they should.
@@idontwantahandlethough not that kind of shelter its more a place where they have children who where taken from guardians either reasonably or unreasonably
Those kids not at home were likely a 12 years old sent to work on a farm and a 14 year old working on a hazardous line in a factory.
The South is gonna be as Southern as ever 🙄 Old attitudes die hard. What gets me is these are the very people who say things like, "Slavery ended a long time ago." Or "I see people, not colors" 🤦♂️
Oh no these parents are the type that claim black people were better off as slaves. Learned all sorts of useful skills as slaves. The don't see color idiots like to gaslight black people and pretend systematic racism doesn't exist.

@@ThatGuy-bh9qhAnd Samuel Cooper the highest ranking general officer of the Confederacy during the American civil war was from New York. What’s your point?
@@Clippidyclappidythat it’s a systemic problem throughout the USA, not a regional one.
@@Clippidyclappidy my point is you're making this out to be a Southern problem, when in reality these people got away with doing this shit for years in a so called progressive state like WA and only ended up being prosecuted once they moved to West Virginia.
Try being a little less ignorant
This reminds me of “The Program” documentary. While it’s not strictly race related like the news story, it shows how our society doesn’t give a sh*t about marginalized kids. They’re treated like chattel and subject to severe human rights abuses with impunity on the part of the abusers. In this case the perpetrators were arrested, but ultimately this is a widespread, systemic problem. The kids that suffer these horrific abuses wind up with PTSD or worse and struggle for the rest of their lives. How can we let this go on?
As a home care visiting nurse, I witnessed an evangelical couple who had adopted 2 black children. These children were punished for every small infraction, & treated what I saw as racist cruelty by their evangelical church "teachers". Disgusting. I refused to go there once I figured this out. The child that I was visiting for medical issues, was their white biological son.
Sounds like you had to report on them too

Entrepreneurs. Capitalists. Why pay minimum wage? Adopt!
Now what happens to those teenage kids that are traumatized? I'd bet it's hard to find a family to adopt them. Maybe the younger ones have a chance. Our foster care system is a mess.
Do they happen to be very religious people practicing solid morals?
"Slaves, be subject to your masters with all reverence, not only to those who are good and equitable but also to those who are perverse."
1 Peter 2:18
Have you guys heard about the parties some of these people hold where they trade their foster children with eachother idk how much is actually true or still on going but i know someone who went through them
Yes! It is especially prevalent in the online foster groups' blog forums. Did you see the foster/adoption pageants that have been going on for yearsssss? They literally hold a beauty pageant and have children walk down the catwalk for prospective "parents" to choose which child they like. It is disgusting.
Them being wealthy if they were before they adopted those minors, likely helped them get approved quicker.
I don't know about the US, but I've repeatedly heard that in Swirzerland, you can't adopt if you've had a difficult childhood. Which seems so weird to me since you may very well have worked through any issues you had and because they peopke I know who grew up sheltered are often just very cold-hearted. And I think they are that way because they can much less well empathise with people who've suffered because they've never gone through something themselves.
The fact that yt ppl will consider black ppl being rude or distrusting as "reverse racism" but then they're doing this type of shit will forever boggle my mind.
I don't see how this case justifies being racist to white people as a whole?
@@XXTheSadisticlemurXXThat really went over your head.
@@jamescampbell4751 no, it didn't. She made a generalization akin to what I hear from conservatives complaining about minorities not condemning petty theft. I called it out, and instead of engaging with the point, you're trying to handwave the point away.
yeah. at least blk ppl have an excuse. yt ppl dont.
@@XXTheSadisticlemurXX idk how "this" started but I'll clarify. I said yt ppl, not as a generalization, but because they are the only group that claims "reverse racism". Realistically discrimination on the basis of race would be considered racism regardless of what race the recipient is.
But because it tends to be yt ppl responding to POC's being either anti racist or as I said "distrustful, or rude" (a valid response), they instead call it reverse racism. As if it's morally an equal and opposite response to racism.
No not work in barn...they worked wherever but they were locked in barn when not working
😪
I just need to REALLY point out that “unwanted pregnancy” is NOT the cause of this horrific adoption turned chattel slavery! Adopting a baby who was JUST born is an incredibly rigorous, expensive, and lengthy process!!! People wait several years to be matched BECAUSE it isn’t actually common for women to choose to give up their babies for adoption! And the adoptive parents have to have multiple background checks (that are redone every year or two if they are still haven’t been matched), a multitude of home studies, numerous references from family, friends, neighbors, etc, be financially stable, and after the family is matched there are numerous follow-ups before the agency (and most importantly the Court) sign off on full legal adoption! Not to mention that at large proportion of infant adoption are no longer closed, so the mother (or parents) are given rights to yearly updates and visitation rights. The minimum particulars of which are decided between the biological parents, adoptive parents, adoption agency, and courts before finalization.
That is not 100% true. Really only private adoption agencies require all that and it depends on the agency. I gave my daughter up for adoption at 20 and the agency didn't do background checks or home checks. You can adopt newborns easier if you go through the state. Newborns are ripped away from mothers by CPS all the time. (for suspicion of drugs, alcohol abuse or abusive households, or sometimes literally just because a wealthy white women decided she wanted that child. This happened to my brother.)
This horrible couple moved from Washington state because they were being investigated there!
There needs to be a federal agency that is following these kids if they are moved.
And definitely homeschooled kids need to be tested 4 times a year by professionals to make sure that they are okay and they are being educated!
I totally agree with you as a teacher in another country, I find it alarming that children are allowed to be homeschooled so easily, especially for religious reasons. These are often high demand religions and they are also often cults. Young people are vulnerable and they should not just be allowed to dissappear. I just don't know how in this day and age we can't track these people from state to state.
Please don't blame any of this on homeschooling. Public Education is broken and their are plenty of great parents that homeschool their children and do not abuse them. Going to a public school doesn't guarantee an adult is going to notice anything. There are plenty of kids in public school who are being abused and no one knows.
@@missp498- Oh, it can be done, but the lax U.S. wouldn't do it.
@@TheMPExperience- Widespread home schooling is a problem in more ways than one.
Speaking as a social worker/case manager who’s worked in group homes…
I can attest to how horrid the foster care system is. There are stories in these places that make me cry sometimes.

Ah, yes... Home Schooling. West Virginia was specifically singled out by John Oliver on Last Week Tonight as a state that does ZERO oversight of children in homeschooling. That was a good call. That is likely why they moved there.

Disgusting 🤢
I want to be sorry for being so pedantic, but I really can't: both the judge and the correspondent refer to things like human trafficking and slavery separately from "human rights violations", as if a single one of the charges against them weren't a human rights violation. "Human trafficking and human rights violations" is redundant.

I can’t believe in 2024 you have to say
You may not use adopted kids or any kids as slaves.
But everything has gone crazy since 2020
This has been an issue for decades.
I can tell that people are unaware of the fact that this isn't that uncommon. Where I am from, older foster kids that aren't likely to be adopted often end up on the farms. They go to school and they get fed. That typically doesn't happen for the kids who age out of the system. It sounds like these characters abused a system of employment and shelter that generally works, and I can guarantee that it isn't going anywhere once the publicity dies down.
……..but they were such a wholesome well to do well off white Christian family.
They can bond out but can't afford an attorney?? Foh

So they used their ill gotten gains to post bond.
Holy shit this is a bit from Atlanta (the show)
The Atlanta episode was also based on a real story
I get up in foster care until I aged out of the system. It's generally much easier and faster to adopt out of the foster care system if the parents aren't around.
Horrific!
This has happened before. Atlanta had an episode about it and history repeated itself.
So do these children qualify for reparations or is there yet another excuse like not providing some just for the Black ppl who survived the Black Wall Street massacre in Tulsa Oklahoma?

Hmm, the gutting of all our social programs and all accountability therein seems to be going terribly. Who could have seen this coming?
Being able to pay bail to get off on child slave labor charges is just a roundabout way of the state taking a bribe to look the other way.
Their argument wouldn’t be give the kid up for adoption anymore. Most states have laws saying you can drop your unwanted baby at any firehouse or police station and you will not be prosecuted for abandonment. That’s good thing but still shouldn’t preclude women from being able to have abortions
11:30 - That was exactly the thought I had; like, are they forcing these 5 kids to do slave labor in R&D at a pharmaceutical company or something??

"Who's in shackles now bay beeee?"- The Judge
Sounds like a Criminal Minds episode.
Or L&R SVU
Not new. Red and Black children were adopted out to white farm families for generations, and were often treated as labor. My grandma was adopted to a white farm family and she said "The had 6 boys and no daughters and the mother needed help in the kitchen." I also know another Red Elder who shared her life story and how foster care had her and several children of color were fostered and used as labor to pluck chickens and clean the barns. I've heard many stories like this direct from people who lived through it. ANd many had multiple foster children.
I figure in less than 10 years Sandra Bullock will get a Oscar nomination for a movie about these people
Foster care agencies literally give kids to troubled teen industry places.
Some adoptive parents put there adopted kids in them because the idea of adoption wears off and they don't bother to learn about things like trauma and cultural differences.
In case you missed their arguement, they are basically saying,
"This mistreatment of some Black Children by the adoption system is outrageous. That's why Black People should be able to abort them."
How do people make these kinds of arguments with a straight face?
I mean it is pretty easy. I don't think these things compare at all.
They politicized this story so much, I hate how polarized we are as a country because this is such an important topic and they could've really went into the failures of the foster care system/ adoption system & the disproportionately way it effects rural, poor and marginalized people. The struggles a homeless mother might be having...ect. And talked about advocating for policy changes instead they used it as a vehicle to push their own political narrative.
@@alexisrobinson9180 agreed

Anybody seen that one Atlanta episode? LMAO
I'm a retired teacher and social worker. The private adoption industry is not subject to the same regulations and practices as the public system. Unlike the foster system, which is government run, once an adoption is complete, there is no further monitoring. There is an extensive underground infrastructure set up for the "rehoming" of adopted children by their now legal parents. Authorities are no longer in the loop. This of course leaves children vulnerable to the most unsavory actors out there.
Unfortunately even when kids are in the foster care system, many times there is a lot of monitoring either.
Those people are wealthy nobody looked at them twice
Bond shouldn't have even been a fucking option
I was an infant adopted in 1970. Nobody has any idea how bad all sides of these systems are, how far back it all goes, on a continuum of atrocity systems where slavery was the point. This is not mere malfunctions. There's a whole history...incl Orphan Trains.
Now these are Republicans who truly live by America's traditional values!
This is simply horrible!😢
The CPS/foster/adoption system in Washington permitted this, and they were abetted for a long time by the state of West Virginia.
Unfriendly reminder that the United States is the ONLY country that has not ratified the United Nations Convention of the Rights of the Child.
Would Trump pardon people like this? That would be horrifying.
He probably would.
