Girlfriend and I are adopting a child, advice needed. Please be respectful SRS

So as some of you are aware, my girlfriend and I are currently trying for a child and due to complications we will be adopting, a problem with the eggs apparently.

Anyway we are over the moon about this, but here’s the thing, now it doesn’t bother me one bit, I’m just happy to be a father and do my best but my girlfriend wants an African child. The place we looked at does some good deals although it is very expensive, roughly 20k. My girlfriend says she wants to save a life as well as give life so I see where she is coming from and fully support her in our family.

Now here’s why I’m making this thread, my whole life I’ve always connected with black culture (blues music, some rap music, used to play basketball etc) and spiritually I do feel quite Black in some ways (I know that sounds retarded but I’m sure some brothers will feel me on this), it’s about culture and spiritual identity more than colour. Point is I’m gonna help this kid celebrate his culture, we’ll have rap days, teach him basketball etc so he can connect with his homeland whilst having a new identity with us. Any brahs out there able to recommend some good cultural/historical activities to share with your child???

We’ve got some names as ideas for the child:


Adebowale
- meaning:

Return of the crown; refers to a child born after many years of waiting

Adebiyi
-meaning: The royal one.

T’challa (not sure if this is too on the nose or culturally insensitive)

Any name ideas? He is West African

Hope some of you guys/gals can help me with some ideas

Please keep it helpful and respectful, it's a big commitment and I'd prefer not to have to wade through insensitive or bigot comments

I suggest using Jergens, Gold Bonds or Suave lotion, not that watered down Queen Helens coco butter poverty stuff. Put some oil in that babies hair and he'll be good to go

Why not have her carry a donor egg that you fertilized?

Known several couples who have done this.

I don't know, she's going through a spiritual phase right now and is adamant she wants an African child, would that be possible through donor egg fertilization??

I didn't copy this from any where, search it in google if you don't believe me. Please can you treat this seriously and respectfully as this may impact my childs future.

Jesse Lee is a great representative for Blacks imo so I will hopefully have my child listening to him as soon as possible, plus it will be a good introduction to Christianity for him

lmao enjoy raising some other guy's spawn over your own boyo

His culture is going to be your culture, you racist piece of dogchit. You're already stereotyping and generalizing him by his color.

There is no "black culture". That is an idea invented by racists.

Fuking T'challa? rap? Are you fuking srs dude? You realize there are black lawyers, engineers, doctors, scientists, etc right? You realize not every black person is a motherfuking hoodrat from the ghetto. Get over yourself. Not all black people listen to rap or play basketball, you fuking clown.

"representative for blacks" -- srsly fist yourself

What you call "black culture" is a product of living in the fuking hood because your great grandparents weren't allowed to get an education, your grandparents were treated as second class citizens, and your parents likely held low status jobs and didn't get an education. Do you know why kids in the ghetto play basketball and not golf? Because basketball is cheap and fun. They'd play soccer, but there are no
cheap fields in the fuking cities. Do you know why rap is often associated with crime and drugs? Because that's what happens in the fukking ghetto. If these people got educations, they'd become authors or some chit. You just don't fuking get it. You don't get how fukd up it is that when you use the word black, you're automatically fuking thinking of basketball and rap.

srsly fuk you OP

Black people are just people and have only ever wished to be treated and viewed as individuals with the same rights and respect due everyone else. A person's fuking identity is more than the music they listen to and a fuking sport they play wih their peers. And it certainly isn't defined by the pigment of their fuking skin.

Brah learn some cultural sensitivity srs

Didn't you learn anything from Black Panther??? What you are saying is like saying there is no white culture, totally nonsensical. To prove to me there's no black culture you'd need to prove there's no white culture...good luck with that

You can't be serious.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

I wish I had rap and basketball days as a kid.

You should all watch "Love & Hip-Hip" in the evening on those days but only after having a African-American themed dinner OP.

Thanks brah

I'll need to check that show out, there is going to be a couple of adoption interviews with the agency and doing my research with shows like this will help me if they ask any questions about culture etc.

Will need to get some African-American cookery books etc but I presume it's gonna be like soul food n bbq stuff which I LOVE and I'm sure the kid will too.
