Don't worry about those who might think you're using a child as an accessory. Many black people believe evil is not what's wrong with the world, but rather "whiteness" is what's wrong with the world, so of course there are going to be those who object to you adopting a black child. Even with the announcement of that new black superhero movie, you see all over the internet, black people complaining that they're going to have to share the theatre with white people, and asking white people not to show up for the first week of the movie because "this is for us, not you". I give them somewhat of a pass for their racism because of all that black people have been through and are still going through. Don't worry about what people are going to think too much. Just do what you think is best for the child.
I never was concerned about them. There will always be people pushing for some extreme. Best not to to awknowledge something when it’s obviously ridiculous, or they will keep pushing.
When I have kids some day(if I do), I'll adopt whichever ones I want. I dont care what others say.
Besides, I dont think I could find a kid that matched my background if I tried. I'm a bit of a mutt. (As in I have so many random things in my background)
