Transracial Adoption, Identity, and Racism in the United States: Between Two Worlds delves into the complex realm of transracial adoption, exploring its implications for identity and racism in the country. The author posits that transracial adoption arises from deep-rooted systemic issues of racial injustice, acknowledging that these challenges will require a sustained effort to address as they continue to manifest. While significant strides have been made in raising awareness about the disproportionate representation of Black children in foster care, transracial adoption will persist as a reality. In the interim, the author proposes an intentional exploration of the narratives of Black transracial adoptees to gain insights into the racial socialization processes within transracial adoptive households during childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Adoptees share their experiences of race within White families, the gaps in racial socialization they encountered, the complex emotions they harbor towards their families, and their evolving understandings of race as young adults in the United States. The stories shared in this book aim to provoke a transformative shift in the approach to transracial adoption by White parents, adoption professionals, social workers, researchers, and counseling psychologists.
