Should Transracial Adoptions be Encouraged?

Paper Summary:

The writer of this paper examines transracial adoptions which has long been a subject of controversy. Transracial adoption refers not only to black children being adopted into white homes but also to the many international adoptions that take place each year. This paper also discusses the social and legal ramifications of this type of adoption.

From the Paper:

"In a transracial adoption there is an additional layer of questioning that needs to be done because of the circumstances unique to that situation, but in the end, the criteria for adoptive parents are the same.
Another reason transracial adoption should be encouraged is the fact that there are an overwhelming number of biracial, black and non-Caucasian children waiting to be adopted."
