CONTRIBUTORS: DR. NICHOLAS COOPER-LEWTER, JOSHUA CROME, APRIL DINWOODIE, AMANDINE GAY, TARA LINH LEAMAN,JD, NATASHA ORLANDO, ROSEMARIE PEÑA, JANET M. PRICE, PSYD, BARBARA ROBERTSON,LMSW, LIZ SEMONS, SEAN SPARKS, DR. CATANA TULLY, HANNA WALLENSTEEN, MILTON WASHINGTON, MARIETTE WILLIAMS, CHRISTOPHER THOMAS WILSON"People who identify as Black adoptees are vaguely known within both adoption circles as well as universal discussions. We are just beginning to be introduced to one another. This anthology allows for the opportunity to see the rich diversity of a people; the uniqueness within the individual stories. Inside this book, you will read the depth of struggle, and the pure grace, dignity and accomplishments achieved, sometimes connected to the privileges afforded us while in the midst of insurmountable odds."

Susan Harris O'Connor, MSW

About this title

Review:

'Black Anthology:Adult Adoptees Claim Their Space' is an amazing and much needed addition to the literary contributions of the adoptee experience. The writers' visions, perspectives and personal reflections truly provide excellent insight and awareness to all who have been personally touched by adoption. This volume of work will build knowledge for both adoption professionals and the general public.
