The &lt;a href="http://adopteerights.net/"&gt;Adoptee Rights Demonstration&lt;/a&gt; is coming to Louisville.  This affects folks not just in Kentucky but also Indiana.  There are many &lt;a href="http://adultadoptees.org/"&gt;adoptees&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://blog.amyadoptee.com/2009/04/03/why-birthmother-terms-should-be-natural-mothers-or-first-mothers.aspx"&gt;birthparents&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="http://blog.amyadoptee.com/2009/04/04/are-adoptive-parents-adopters.aspx"&gt;adoptive parents &lt;/a&gt;who have both of these states in their adoption connections.  It is important that both states become actively involved in this demonstration.  It is important that we make this bigger than both New Orleans and Philadelphia.  We as a group can do this.   We need the support of not just &lt;a href="http://adultadoptees.org/"&gt;adoptees&lt;/a&gt; but their&lt;a href="http://blog.amyadoptee.com/2009/04/03/why-birthmother-terms-should-be-natural-mothers-or-first-mothers.aspx"&gt; birthparents&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://blog.amyadoptee.com/2009/04/04/are-adoptive-parents-adopters.aspx"&gt;adoptive parents&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can show our support in many ways.  We can do the youtube video thing which below is the information and video.  Here is a message from the &lt;a href="http://adopteerights.net/"&gt;Adoptee Rights Demonstration Team&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="560" height="340"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/W4DQ5iDDEuA&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/W4DQ5iDDEuA&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Listen up! We need EVERYONE'S help to spread the word about the&lt;a href="http://adopteerights.net/"&gt; Adoptee Rights Demonstration&lt;/a&gt;, and maybe even help the protest win $100 to go towards expenses for next year's rally!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There's a slide show up on Youtube with pictures from the protests in New Orleans and Philadelphia. The link is:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4DQ5iDDEuA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We need EVERYONE to do these three things at the link above:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.) Rate the video&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.) Add it to your favorites&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.) Leave a comment&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Doing these three things all count as 'votes' at Youtube. With enough votes, we'll be pushed to the front of the Nonprofits and Activism page, which will raise awareness about the protest and our issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Done? OK next steps!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Head on over to AdoptionVoices.com and repeat the steps above&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://adoptionvoices.com/video/from-nola-to-philly-the&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.) Rate the video&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.) Add it to your favorites&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.) Leave a comment&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These three items all count as votes there as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://adoptionvoices.com/"&gt;AdoptionVoices&lt;/a&gt; is having a contest, and the video with the most votes will win $200. This would be a HUGE help to the protest, as our permit expenses for Louisville will be much higher than at protest-friendly Philadelphia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please help!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we can help them earn $100.00 for our protest, that is a step in the right direction.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3305259931389236546-6266242260992372722?l=kentuckians4obcaccess.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kentuckians4obcaccess.blogspot.com/feeds/6266242260992372722/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3305259931389236546&amp;postID=6266242260992372722' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3305259931389236546/posts/default/6266242260992372722'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3305259931389236546/posts/default/6266242260992372722'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kentuckians4obcaccess.blogspot.com/2009/07/adoptee-rights-demonstration-from-nola.html' title='Adoptee Rights Demonstration: From Nola To Philly!'/><author><name>Kentuckians for OBC Access</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05787645219933915787</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3305259931389236546.post-3940479897744367442</id><published>2009-07-28T06:33:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-28T09:28:53.050-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='birthmothers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='adoptee'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='adoptive parents'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='original birth certificate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='adoption'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='adoptee rights demonstration'/><title type='text'>Welcome to Kentuckians for Original Birth Certificate Access</title><content type='html'>This blog is in the process of being set up for the &lt;a href="http://adultadoptees.org"&gt;adult adoptees&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://blog.amyadoptee.com/2009/04/03/why-birthmother-terms-should-be-natural-mothers-or-first-mothers.aspx"&gt;birthmothers&lt;/a&gt; of Kentucky.   This is also to advise those involved in the adoption reform movement to be advised of current events involving the &lt;a href="http://adopteerights.net"&gt;Adoptee Rights Demonstration&lt;/a&gt;.   We will be discussing the issues surrounding this vitally important issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We will shed the light on the myths of the&lt;a href="http://www.divinecaroline.com/22095/39669-national-council-adoption--mothers--money-"&gt; adoption industry&lt;/a&gt; as a whole and the &lt;a href="http://www.divinecaroline.com/22095/39669-national-council-adoption--mothers--money-"&gt;NCFA&lt;/a&gt; in particular.  This issue not only concerns &lt;a href="http://adultadoptees.org"&gt;adoptees&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://blog.amyadoptee.com/2009/04/03/why-birthmother-terms-should-be-natural-mothers-or-first-mothers.aspx"&gt;birthparents&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="http://blog.amyadoptee.com/2009/04/04/are-adoptive-parents-adopters.aspx"&gt;adoptive parents&lt;/a&gt; but also many other ordinary folks as a result.  We will point out the fallacies of their argument&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have the statistics, important documentation and other information that proves that adult &lt;a href="http://adultadoptees.org"&gt;adoptees&lt;/a&gt; and their families should have access to that vital document.  So be patient with us as we get this site built up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please excuse the dust as we continue building this site.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3305259931389236546-3940479897744367442?l=kentuckians4obcaccess.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kentuckians4obcaccess.blogspot.com/feeds/3940479897744367442/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3305259931389236546&amp;postID=3940479897744367442' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3305259931389236546/posts/default/3940479897744367442'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3305259931389236546/posts/default/3940479897744367442'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kentuckians4obcaccess.blogspot.com/2009/07/welcome-to-kentuckians-for-original.html' title='Welcome to Kentuckians for Original Birth Certificate Access'/><author><name>Kentuckians for OBC Access</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05787645219933915787</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
