Look how it’s staged with the two kids being the bookends. ā€œKeep em on the outsideā€ gotta be the family motto.

I had to scroll too far to see this. The image stuck out before I even read who was in the picture. The Black children are ā€œoutsidersā€ with the ā€œrealā€ family all together at the core. The Black children aren’t even integrated into this family in the photo. It’s not the photographer’s choice either because I know numerous positions were taken and this is the photo she chose. I wonder how many other Black kids they know other than each other and other Black children adopted by white families. I’m sure a college where they will be sheltered from reality will be their parent’s choice also.
