I don't think racism is at the heart of this...

i know people who hated capri pants, thought they were the ugliest thing. but when they became trendy to wear, they were buying them. once they weren't so trendy, they were back to hating them.

just because something becomes trendy doesn't mean that prevoius thoughts/feelings about them become null and void.

if someone wants to adopt a child and purposely goes out of the country because the only way they can adopt a non-black child is by doing so, i'd have to say that there is some form bias against blacks going on.

after all, a child is a child, right?
