A statement made on the floor of the state house last month in Montgomery got a loud reply this afternoon from angry parents.
State representative Alvin Holmes said republican lawmakers would support abortion if their daughters became pregnant by black men. Holmes later said he would offer $100,000 cash to anyone who could show "a whole bunch of whites" have adopted black children in Alabama.

I am sure there are more than you think. I know of at least two families who have adopted white children into their African American families (I wanted to write Black but they don’t like that term.... they are somewhat younger than myself so.....)

I’d love to see a IQ study of black adults adopted as children by white couples and see if they break the “85” barrier ... seems to me the problem is “environment” ,, and “attitude”.
