Adoption in sub saharan Africa is grown primarily because of AIDS. We are affected. Period. I can't allow myself to selfishly believe that God is allowing this epidemic to grow for the purpose of me becoming a parent. I am being allowed to adopt for the purpose of making change in the life of a child and promoting change in the life of a country; and in my own country; and within my own race; in my own community.
Please watch ALL OF US a documentary by an Ethiopian American doctor about women and AIDs and how the AIDS epidemic involving African American women and African women mirror each other so closely. Imagine, a third world country and urban America. Its on Showtime!!
This is an amazing documentary.
Peace,
