This special episode delves into the topic of adoption in the Black community from the perspective of an incredible lineup of guests, including stories from adoptive parents and adoptees from across the world.

The show features an interview with Didi and Priscilla, an amazing example of Black adoptive parents from the LGBTQ+ community, who share their experience on everything from the steps to adoption and the process of matching a child with their parents to the reasoning behind wanting to match a child with parents that share their heritage. 

Joy Carter, a comedian, actor, speaker and adoptee from Nigeria joined me to chat all about her journey as an adoptee with a white family and the challenges that came with it.

Chatting with me all the way from the US were Jordyn and Mia, both with incredible advice and stories from their journeys as adoptees.

Bringing it Black exists to celebrate, showcase and collaborate with the hottest talent from the UK's Black community 🙌
