NPR story on transracial adoption

Today on "News & Notes," Ed Gordon tackled the issue of transracial adoption, specifically African-American children being adopted by Caucasian parents.

"Parents Increasingly Adopting Children of Another Race"

Very good piece, so be sure to check out the audio when it becomes available on the NPR site.

Also from today's show ...

"A Personal Story of Transracial Adoption"

And another segment from July ...

"Foreign Adoption of African-American Babies Grows"

And a piece from May on unwed birth mothers during the '40s, '50s and '60s ...

"'The Girls Who Went Away': Birth Mothers' Stories"
