    Interesting question since it is widely assumed that white parents adopting a black child have an obligation to expose her to African-American culture. Seems to me that the best answer on either side would be for the family to go to integrated gatherings, churches, etc., and to have friends of various colors so the child can experience people of different races mixing without tension. Most of the children up for adoption or foster care in my state are black, and I have often wondered what the social climate would be like (for both myself and the child) if I were to adopt a black child.
