Asians already have a huge population and they're not as wealthy as Europeans and Americans. I am sure there are far more Asian orphans and they can always adopt one of their own if they need to...

There are many rich Arabs, Indians and chinese, do your research.

There are plenty of white orphans too, yet Europeans often choose to adopt children from different races and countries, including Black children. Black kids in Africa often face far worse conditions

So when will black people begin adopting white kids? Let's start with that... You need to adopt one white kid today to set a positive example to Africans, don't you agree?

Many Africans still have a tribalism mindset, even in adoption.

I know one white lady who got adopted by her black nanny here in SA when she was still young, her biological mother is an explorer and spends most of her time traveling around the world and never had time for her.

I don't know the full story, but she ended up moving in with the nanny and she was raised as a white Pedi girl while still keeping in contact with her biological mother.

First time I met her, I was surprised hearing her speaking Sepedi in a strong Sepedi accent.

Wow, that's a unique story... I'm guessing you're from SA...

My point exactly is that Africans don't always have to be the ones being adopted.

If we want to be respected in the world, we also need to step up. God didn't create the black race to become the destitutes and orphans of the world...
Re: Why rich Arabs, Indians, Chinese rarely adopt black children like white people. by Samantha125(f):
Well, most of us are still bound by culture and why adopt a white child when there are a lot of African children in need of a warm and loving home?

Charity begins at home, had it been that Africa was as developed as Europe, then maybe some Africans would've adopted children from other ethnic groups.

Good point, very good point. Still, does that justify the fact that the OP was literally demanding for African kids to be adopted by whites and other Caucasians? It's the entitlement mentality over adoption that I'm puzzled about.

We should be responsible for adopting our own kids as Africans, that's the bottom line.

Both the Arabs, Indians, and the Chinese are also facing the same situation as us Africans... But some Indians do intermix with other ethnic groups.

The above is exactly my point... You can go through the previous comments to confirm.

These people also have their own problems, so nobody is going to come and solve Africa's problems for Africa, we need to look inwards.

EOD.

But Indians can be more welcoming... I've seen some of them getting married to black/African people.

This SA Zulu girl was adopted by an SA Indian family as well.
