A close personal friend of mine was part of the sixties scoop and she has shared her walk with me. I can't even possibly imagine what her life must of been like. The aprehension, being adopted by non-native people and growing up with identity issues and never feeling like she truly belonged. She looked fair skinned so her adoptive parents raised her as a non-native person. She knew that there was something wrong all her life.
