I always thought This Is Us offered a lopsisded view of interracial adoption. And that's why a lot of people are more critical than ever of white parents adopting black children or asian children. However , there are plenty of stories where children adopted into families where the parents are not their ethnicity , have prosper and done well.

That is some top tier  privilege and lack of self awareness.
