Adoption Across Race and Nation: US Histories and Legacies brings together perspectives on adoption, racial power, family, and national belonging. Its chapters place individual experiences alongside the institutions and political histories that made transracial and transnational adoption possible.
Why we are reading it
The collection helps readers connect Black German adoption histories with wider US and international contexts while attending to the people whose lives continue beyond the moment of adoption.
BGHRA connection
BGHRA founder Rosemarie Peña contributes the chapter “Black Germans: Coming Home to Self and Community.”
