US: Interracial adoption is on the rise – and America is better for it (Opinion)
New York Post – August 20, 2017

According to new research out from the Institute for Family Studies, “The proportion of adopted kindergartners being raised by a mother of a different race or ethnic group rose by 50 percent between 1999 and 2011.”
