Welcome back to all those who are ready to see change in this world. On this episode of Operation Stop CPS's Podcast Series: Voices of the Unheard, Amanda and Tafarrah will magnify the voices of Amen'Ra Sba's parents, Tyron Deener and Syesha Mercado. Listen in at the moment Tyron and Syesha are informed they must leave their child alone in the hospital after Danielle McCoy, the Manatee County Child Protection Investigator assigned to case, rudely informs innocent parents that they no longer had custody of their child. Warning: The following audio may wake the listener up to the injustices that millions of families are forced to face at the hands of the Child Protection System.
Read the story of Amen'Ra Sba, told proudly by his parents:
"Peace and Love. My name is Syesha Mercado, I’m a mother, singer, songwriter, and creative entrepreneur who has had success on Broadway and as a 2nd place runner-up on Season 7 of American Idol. My proudest accomplishment in life is being a Mommy to my beautiful baby boy, Amen’Ra.
My partner Tyron is an educator and youth service professional working in the Foster system, and we need your support to raise awareness of something that has gone unnoticed for too long……….....
"The Legalized Kidnapping of Black Babies through CPS”
I am a Pregnant, breastfeeding, Mama who went to the hospital with the intention to get my sun, Amen’Ra, some fluids while transitioning from extended breastfeeding to being bottle-fed. On March 11th, our sun Amen’Ra was forcefully and legally kidnapped from us by CPS, who claim we refused a B12 shot that was a matter of life and death, which is an absolute lie. We never refused a B12 shot, and at no point was he on the verge of death. Our Sun has since been placed with a white foster family without interviewing qualified relatives or friends of our family for placement while they investigate. We are given limited information and presently only have weekly zoom visitation for an hour with our sun, with no court order stating these visitation limitations.
