  • Hi Zara- I would like to invite you to recite at a reading for the 800,000 dead who are buried on Hart Island. Half are children, and include those who died while in NYC's foster or institutional care, if their parents' rights had been terminated. In these cases, the parents were not informed of their child's death. Please contact me. Thank to you and Darryl McDaniels for your fine work to open adoption records.

  • thanks for sharing , i too was adopted,

    but still wonder what it would have been like if the children's aid society wasn't there to break up my family.

  • As a mother who searched 15 years to find the daughter I surrendered in 1966 I want to say great job and I will be passing this on. God Bless you for your efforts at educating others to the need for equal access for all.

  • Wow, Zara...

    Beautiful...

    This is so well done and so moving.

    Thank you so much for all your hard work and thanks everyone who has taken part for sharing your experiences.

    I will be sharing this with all my online support buddies

    for sure!

  • Excellent Zara, and very powerful!

  • Wow, this looks great!

  • Zara, this is fabulous! KUDOS to you on "Roots Unknown"---and I'm LOVING your music!

  • Nice job, Zara! You are doing some wondering things on behalf of all of us adopted. Thank you!

  • The power of the film comes through on this "tease" and has me wanting more! I like the edits. It flows beautifully and makes me want to send it to everyone for whom this could be helpful. You are one of the few voices speaking for this and I know that there will be a great deal of gratitude coming your way. (And hopefully it will continue to open dialogues about this critical issue that seems to get swept under the rug by 99% of the country.) Good girl!!! Love you! Sandy
