## Resource

Please join me and Adriana Rockefeller as we talk about what has happened in her fight to be recognized as a person since we spoke early last year in a two part interview here on the podcast. Adriana is still fighting to be recognized by Romania and Canada as a legal person. You can be a part of making that happen, as her court case continues. Adriana was raised as Roxana Pamela. Two years ago, she discovered that she had been adopted to Canada from Romania using another infants birth certificate. She subsequently discovered that this invalidates her own legal identity, leaving her in limbo, and without a state. You can help Adriana achieve personhood by purchasing her book and by donating to her fundraiser for legal funds. In a time where we often feel powerless, this is an opportunity to do something concrete for a victim of human trafficking. Her book Ne M'appelez pas Roxana: https://www.indigo.ca/en-ca/ne-mappelez-pasroxana/9782897612764.html Instagram: @adriana.citizenofnowhere gofundme.com/f/Help-Adriana-Reclaim-Her-Identity tiktok: @adriana.citizenofnowhere https://www.journaldemontreal.com/2024/12/07/adoption-et-trafic-denfants-en-roumanie-une-quebecoise-part-a-la-recherche-de-sa-veritable-identite TVA JE Episode: Adoption ou Trafique Humain?
