We have a general idea of how painful adoption can be for a child; they experience neglect in ways that nobody but they can truly understand. They are filled with helpless thoughts that flood their minds and the constant question of why they are treated the way they are. This stimulating chronology of Titus Battle's "Just Because I'm Black: A Tale of Two Lives" recounts one such searing quest of identity, trauma, and the steadiness of the human essence. It displays the battle cry against the insidious wounds imposed by a childhood scarred by abuse and negligence within the foster care system. ...
We have a general idea of how painful adoption can be for a child; they experience neglect in ways that nobody but they can truly understand. They are filled with helpless thoughts that flood their minds and the constant question of why they are treated the way they are. This stimulating chronology of Titus Battle's "Just Because I'm Black: A Tale of Two Lives" recounts one such searing quest of identity, trauma, and the steadiness of the human essence. It displays the battle cry against the insidious wounds imposed by a childhood scarred by abuse and negligence within the foster care system. Here, Battle narrates the uncomfortable truths about race, faith, and the lethal influence of an "unwanted" position on a young life. Furthermore, Battle dissects the notion of adoption as a "living abortion," a prolonged and excruciating erasure of self. He fearlessly recounts the horrors he and his brothers tolerated, highlighting the physical and emotional scars inflicted under the mask of religious discipline. But amidst the gloaming, a trace of hope remains. Ultimately, this account urges us to confront the uncomfortable realities of our society and demand a world where every child is valued, fended, and given the option to construct a life based on love and support.
