Penny Zagarelou-Mackieson: Truth, Not Lies, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Penny Zagarelou-Mackieson unpicks the political interests associated with the seemingly mundane topic of birth certificates. From the designed secrecy of birth certificates hiding the origins of adoptees in Australia in 1838 to a new form in surrogacy that denies the biological origins of a child. Recently, governments have falsified documents by recognising a new transgender identity as self-ID enabling men access to spaces, competitions and services reserved for women. This book is an important read for people genuinely concerned about human rights, identity, birth mothers and equality. In recent years, birth certificates have been falsified when governments recognise so-called ' transition' through self-ID and a change of gender identity, enabling men access to spaces, competitions and services reserved for women. This book is an important read for people genuinely concerned about human rights, identity, birth mothers and equality.
