In the meantime, we see ourselves as open
adoption advocates and are spending time writing
about our
journey, educating people
about adoption,
listening to others tell us
about their
journeys, and using all forms of media to help us find our future children.
[If you are white] do not start your transracial
adoption journey until you've sat on your hands,
listened, and learned
about racial mirrors, systemic racism, and the importance of seeing color as well as cultures.
