Rachel's post on
Reframing Transracial Adoption on her blog is excellent. She tells about mainstream media's tendency to posit transracial adoption in dichonomous terms such as good white parent vs. bad black parent, etc. She also wrote that media outlets have gone overboard on the black/white aspect of TR adoption while ignoring Asian, Latino, Native American children adopted by White couples. In fact, while Whites overwhelmingly adopt children from their own race, they adopt far more nonblack children of color than Black/Biracial Black ones. The media has it all wrong on that account.
It seems that this is the new fad .... adopting kids of different nationalities i.e. African , Asian etc arent there enough poor downtrodden kids in the states that would love a good life/future. it just seems that because a couple of Stars do it that it's the right thing to do B...S....
ReplyDeleteHey bigot,
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you do something constructive with your life instead of attacking the messenger. You are so afraid of the truth. It really hurts, does it?
