Madonna accused of child trafficking

[funhouse]

Madonna is being accused of human trafficking by the Ethiopian World Federation (EWF). This is in response to Madonna adopting 4 children from Malawi.

"Ethiopian World Federation, an organisation established in the United States in 1937 to promote love and good-will among Ethiopians at home and abroad."
Huh.

"The Federation, which has since transformed into a global diaspora organisation, is asking the Malawi leader, President Lazarus Chakwera to prevent "homosexual and transgender" allegations over the adoption of the Malawian children for possible "human trafficking and social experiments"."
Hmm.

"The petition also accused the government of Malawi of failing "to do a complete social background check on the adoptive parent" and they have reason to believe that Madonna "is using these children as a social experiment in response to the heavy LGBTQ community push for sodomy in America"."
Excuse me.

I was like “whoaaa” and then kept reading.

🙄 Ok. Okay. Just say you’re homophobic/transphobic.

I feel like I need someone who's familiar with this org to explain the situation, because while I don't discount that white people adopting children from African countries can be exploitative (especially in terms of separating them from their families) this just sounds like straight up Xtian moral panic to me

as if it was a surprise in the year 2006 that Madonna was explicit haha

Isn't it usually on these agencies to do the background research into potential parents? If they're raising this as a cultural and moral clash, then how would any foreign adopters know what they need or don't need to disclose if the agency isn't outright raising these specific issues?

[squirrels_oh_no]

The homophobia is strong with these people i see.
