An adoption expert and transracial adoptee herself examines the unique perspectives and challenges these adoptees have as they navigate multiple culturesYour parents are so amazing for adopting you! You should be grateful that you were adopted.Angela Tucker is a Black woman, adopted from foster care by white parents. She has heard this microaggression her entire life, usually from wellintentioned strangers who view her adoptive parents as noble saviors. She is grateful for many aspects of her life, but being transracially adopted involves layers of rejection, loss, and complexity that cannot be summed up so easily.In You Should Be Grateful, Tucker centers the experiences of adoptees to share deeply personal stories, wellresearched history, and engrossing anecdotes from mentorship sessions with adopted youth. These perspectives challenge the fairytale narrative of adoption, giving way to a fuller story that explores the impacts of racism, classism, family, love, and belonging.
