Thank you for sharing your personal experiences with us, Jacob, and for raising awareness to the overly glamorized transracial adoption culture in Western countries!

I didn't realize that religion played a part in the white savior complex, nor did I realize that racism ran as deep as "pricing" light-skinned kids higher than dark-skinned kids. Incredibly messed up and heart-breaking.
