Mal... you make a good point about the difficulties of getting children here. I recall friends having this difficulty as well.
That said, I don't think there is enough awareness that there are these American children, who happen to be black, to adopt.
If as much outcry were raised about these babies being parentless as these is for the babies of China, I think there would be a rapid increase in the number of these babies getting adopted.
I think Daswig's "sick" baby issue is relevant as well. While the reality is probably more along the lines that the majority of these babies are healthy, the White American perception would be that they are all crack babies... That would certainly smack of prejudice if it were true.
