What it’s like to raise a transracial family

Yahoo asked me to do an interview and profile for their “What It’s Like” parenting series, talking about transracial adoption. I had a little trepidation, because it’s a difficult topic to do by interview. When I’m writing on race, I can edit and craft my own words. But this was an hour-long interview cut down to four minutes. I was worried about what would be conveyed. It’s such a touchy subject. I was really please when I got to watch the video and read the story. I feel like they did a great job of highlighting my main points. The video is here: And you can read the story, with more of the interview here.
