The newly appointed Supreme Court Justice, Amy Coney Barrett, like many transracial adoptive parents of Black children, acknowledges racism exists. “I think it is an entirely uncontroversial and obvious statement, given, as we just talked about the George Floyd video, that racism persists in our country,” Barrett said in the second day of her nomination hearings. Like many transracial adoptive parents though, Barrett does not seem to fully grasp how her misunderstanding of racism, lack of advocacy, and problematic positioning of her Black children upholds the same racist systems that she worries will one day brutalize them.
