Adoptive mom of interracial son: “I want to beg his forgiveness”

“I want to beg his forgiveness,” writes adoptive mom and author Lea Rachel. “For all I didn’t understand, for all I never knew, for all I still have to learn.”

Rachel tells the story of interracial adoption from the perspective of a white mother who adopts a Black son in her latest novel, “Seeking Forgiveness.”

In the book, Rachel struggles with her competence as a mother and questions the viability of interracial adoption.
