It's not often that I promote a program on VH1--Not that I have anything against it, I just think I am not their "intended demographic" LOL!

But I hope you all do check out "DMC: My Adoption Journey" tonight. It sounds pretty powerful and hopefully will be well done. (That is, it appears to be a true documentary and not along the lines of "Flavor of Love" or something.)

As some of you know, I have a big research and personal interest in adoption, foster care, and reproduction in communities of color. I hope this program--and D's powerful video--will be a mechanism for discussion about these topics.

Adoption.

Wow, Yvette you should read my autobiography then.

Owen McAnnis of UNICEF worked a miracle in placing me with a Black American family.

I'm looking forward to reading more about your own "adoption journey," Kola.

Anyone see the program? Or the new video? What did you think?
