As a single father of two mixed daughters with no mother in the picture, I raised my daughters on my own with nothing but love. Never remarried or even had a serious relationship these last 25 years. They still come first and they are in their late 20’s now.
I love when both mothers and fathers take parenthood seriously and don’t rush to date after having a kids. Men typically get a pass, so you choosing to still be the father you are and sacrifice that when you could easily date without judgment says a lot about your character. You’re amazing ❤
Shoot! Her father battled cancer, a business, and being a gay man in the south?! He epitomized strength and empathy. She was so blessed to be loved so much and protected.

@@AyyoShyGurlTvProtection would have been to NOT raise a defenceless Black child in a sundown town. They literally PUT her in danger because they were selfish.
I dont think that mom really wanted to abort , just cried out for help and thank God someone heard her ! What an amazing daughter .Beautiful mother . 🌹
Yes! Thankfully someone heard her cry for help and gave this child a beautiful life (according to her). I'm interested in hearing how her life story might vary from her older brother raised by her bio mom who had addiction issues.
You praise everybody but the white man that raised her and loved her from her mother to the daughter but not the man and your assuming the mother didn't want to have an abortion but you don't know that
I'm a black guy from Texas now live in Arkansas. I've made plenty of money from these sundown town even the most racist one Harrison. Most folks not racist in the sundown towns maybe decades ago but now these folks are moving along living their life. Facts these folks in those towns treated me better than the blacks I come across.
@@macewindu5610 I understand where you’re coming from. Life isn’t fair. These lies were to protect her so that she could survive childhood. They were easily disproven in her adulthood. #Missionaccomplished People lie to people they love all the time.
I really enjoyed this interview! My mother is white and deaf. Her family was racist, so when I & my sister were born, she was literally cut off. We were living in a dusty, racist Southern California town, struggling to fit in. Mom also had two other kids, but white, still we were an embarrassment to her family. I was oldest, and looked African American, a Ni&&er. I really tried to Pass, the terrible pressure to blend in was a survival mechanism. Eventually, thank goodness my African American grandmother stepped in because of the turmoil of the times, but then we were shoved into my dads’ inner city environment. My world was flipped 180 degrees. My African American father then raised my sister and myself. I went from being a N&&er, to being a White Girl. It was harrowing. Well, now I’m really glad my Pops took us, because my life is soooo much better knowing my identity. My life became my own, and I could finally stop carrying that awful burden of race. I applaud your resilience and fortitude!
That is also an example of oral history. They were taught by their elders the cruel fact that white people adopt children of color and raise them as white. That has been done since the white people came to the Americas in the 1500's.
The photo with her bow in her hair and the flowered dress with her Dad is so cute. She radiates joy. You can tell her father cherished her. Great story. Also, her biological mother was so blessed to have things turn out in her favor. She lucked out having this amazing woman as a daughter.
I’m brown and I was adopted by my white dad and he and his family have loved me and treated me just the same as them. I was raised with so much love! There was some racism when I was little by kids but I don’t see racism as a brown woman today. I see more than ever whites accepting and loving me!
Lacey has a beautiful disposition! For all that she went through, she seems to have found the beauty and love in it all without holding grudges or becoming hardened. I'm so glad her father saved her life. What an incredible testament to Love.
There is a saying "If you feed a child enough the child will start to look like you." She looked like her father when she was younger. This was such a wonderful story and so glad she was in a loving household and the great relationship still stands to this day.♥
Bless you so much! I’m from Houston and that shouldn’t matter, but it makes me feel so close to you. You are so incredibly sensitive and kind to your family and resilient to what was hidden from you. I am so glad you have clarity and the truth. When your college friends told you your truth, I can so relate. My experience was about my anxiety and depression, not race, but I felt truly exposed and accepted for the first time in my life. Once again, I pray for your journey and thank you for sharing.
This proves that anyone can be a father, but someone we can call 'Daddy' is special. A family that provided this life for her is extremely special. How great that he had the means to provide her with a great life while he was still able and a family to continue to provide her with the love and care she deserves.
You mean anyone can be a daddy but to be Father is a special one. We know this by many women calling any men their baby daddy even though they do nothing for their child.
It’s a blessing she grew up with people who loved her and I’m glad she was able to learn her whole story and reconnect with her biological family as well as stay so connected to her adoptive family.
Having a white mama and being loved primarily by my white family is and was a privilege and a blessing for me. I’m always surprised that people seem to want to believe mixed children can’t be loved by their white relatives. Like most of you, l’ve heard the stories about racist white relatives but no one wants to acknowledge the prejudice black ones😊 l love all my relatives and wish l could return to those happier times.
@@Mimi-ht6xr We're talking about VIDOR. A town where they tell black people to leave before sundown or get murdered. Yes, racists come in all shades. (Cookie and a pat on the head for you.) We could talk about how koalas are losing their habitat in the comments as well, however, that's not what her video is about ☺.
I grew up in white world..believe me what she saying happens all the time..one of the lies was to tell people you are Italian, or mix Indian. 100% true.
@@ccd5942. Most original black Americans look different from most Africans , how many black Americans have colored eyes or have native blood in their lineage?
You're so right! Love knows not color, it knows only truth. Lacey is beautiful because her momma loves her and her adopted family loves her. This is pure.
I'm watching this and think the same thing as everyone else: how is it that nobody in that sundown town gave this girl any trouble when she was growing up? But then I remembered something I went through years ago. We moved from Chicago to Texas in the 80s. I was literally the only black in every one of my classes in high school. I was already homesick and felt like I wasn't going to be making any friends here soon! There were kids who were very unapologetically bigoted and made no bones about NOT wanting me in their class. What's fascinating is that a lot of the white kids for whatever reason took me in - and made me feel less homesick. Even more incredible, the kids who were the most outspoken bigots eventually left me alone and even started being kinda cool with me, and I'm sure that's because of the majority of the other white kids who befriended me- and would stand up for me if any of them gave me any trouble. Sometimes, people can really surprise you in very good ways.
As a BW that went to private school, I always knew from a young age that biracials were treated better than full black people. My best friend was biracial and they accepted her but rejected me. It's been this way since the dawn of the United States. They are much more accepting of them than us. I've noticed the same thing in my all yt sorority and college too. This is why I will never call them black actually. Even during slavery they were in the house, and received much better treatment. Sometimes their fathers left them their properties and educated them too. You should look up some of their stories. One mullato boy said the yt family, even his fathers wife spoiled him and gave him whatever he wanted. It's pretty interesting really. They know the difference that's for sure!
@@edj2045Or the biracial slaves were also targeted for SA by the owners because they fit in more with Eurocentric beauty standards. Some fathers had affairs with slave or free black women and openly claimed their children and provided for them but many were the result of SA and were totally ignored and treated as badly as any other slave. Some masters intentionally got their slaves pregnant so that they could sell the children. You are sounding suspiciously like the right wingers that claim that slavery wasn’t that bad. The ownership of any human by any other is abhorrent no matter the conditions. Even if an owner treated a slave almost no different than his free paid employees they were still forced to work for free and faced the uncertain future being transferred like property if their owner sold them, went into bankruptcy or died.
@@gabrielamora6265 I never disputed anything you said and you didn't dispute anything I said. Many were also able to pass and Sally hemmings own son said that that woman never worked a day in her life. Her job was to care for her own children and she studied in France. Would you rather be Sally, or Her Grandmother? Be forreal. You also never addressed how they got better treatment then and now and how yt people know the difference.They created their own spaces then and did you know they have their own spaces now on TH-cam where they actually talk about how they are treated better? Would you look at that! lol
Yup. In two words: herd mentality. But also, if you've got the majority of people or influential members of any majority group who treat you with respect, then the unsavoury bullies tend to follow suit. People take behavioural cues from others.
This story really touched me.. Being raised by my black stepfather, I can totally relate.Different circumstances but I can totally relate... Beautiful woman with a beautiful story ❤️❤️❤️
Why and what would make her story a good movie? You know she is just as much white as she is black. Her biological father was more likely than not, very white.
Wow. Just wow! You are pure class, Lacey Tezino. Anybody would dream of being your mother, father, sister, brother, or friend, and you filled my whole heart with your story.
Her Grandmother is her angel... think of how hard it must've been for her to accept her gay son and his black child in a sundown town. That child grew up surrounded with love and was treated no different than the other family members❤
You know her Dad truly believed he was her Bio Dad. Sounds like she was truly raised with more LOVE THAN MANY OR MOST KIDS HAVE. She was truly Blessed! The fact the Grands gave her the warning If anyone asks… should have been a huge clue. I’m sure with all the Love she grew up with. She had to have grown up very lonely as well. She didn’t fit in with the Blacks or the whites.
My nephew is adopted. He's biracial. They were in church, this man kept staring at him (he was 6), nephew yelled at him IM NOT BLACK!!!!!! After church, my brother sat him down & told him SON YOUR HALF BLACK. IT'S VERY VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU LOOK UP YOUR HISTORY & EMBRACE IT! NEVER SAY YOU'RE NOT BLACK. YOU SHOULD BE PROUD SON......IM SO PROUD YOU ARE WHO YOU ARE! Theyd had him since he was born. RIP BRO.......miss u so
We should be proud of our family lineage. Especially things we can't change such as racial, religion and or place of birth...I will never denied one side over the other over an archaic law.
@@8719Markit’s cool to be proud but I need to add this so we KNOW WHY WE should be so proud: To love ourselves when we look in the mirror. It’s the only way any one of us can ever accept God. Not for history’s sake. You will cause nothing but chaos & destruction in your surroundings if you do not love yourself.
Her father was a gift from God. He had a big heart. Her mother met the angel that would ensure her daughter had a good life even though his time with her was short. He left her in good hands. And now grandma lives with her. This is a human story of good people! This makes my heart smile and cry at the same time.
I'm so happy no one harmed her. It's so sad that Racism is so deep in America. We're all different shades of wheat some are darker some are lighter. We all are a part of one race that's the Human race. Many blessings to the family that adopted her. This was such a beautiful story ❤❤❤
I've always said we are a 🌈 Rainbow of CLaY 🌈 Various Shades and tints of brown. Glad I'm not the only one viewing it as such. We're supposed to be the humane race.
I'm amazed to hear that white hate black .lt means they don't know GOD, they don't serve Him, and they don't have God , they need to repent because no hater will enter the kingdom of GOD
Yessssss...We will let you know in the most gentle and loving way that..."The Math Ain't Mathin". All the love she was raised with produced a beautiful human being.
She accepted the LOVE where it came from and who it came from and through. Resonates with me. ❤🎉 😊 She knows herself and is loving herself too. Awesome
@@msrenee7023She was a child she could not have just left. They loved her that’s all that matter. Her mother gave her up for adoption, so her mother had no say so. Her father loved her and his family loved her. Ultimately that’s all that matters.
I don’t know how long I came across this story. It just popped up. Thank you. It made my day. It just goes to show you How great love is. If people would just look at each other with love. Be colored blind. Wouldn’t it be a wonderful world?
Thank you, Lacey, for sharing your amazzzzzzing story with US! This is the most beautiful story that everybody needs to hear. Incredible!! Nothing but LOVE ❤
The story is truly all about love ! from her bio mom not aborting her, to the extended family raising her after the father passed. The father wanted her so badly. Just so much love she’s so blessed.
And it’s crazy, because I found out at age 50 that my dad was not my dad and everyone knew, even the dad that was in my life. 8 years later I’m still dealing with it and it came out after i wrote my book. Just Crazy!
Modern day Hollywood would probably try to say her dad was a secret gay clansman 😂 That’s how it goes nowadays. I’m surprised this story was told so positively!
Beautiful stiry!!!!! Your family who raised you love you and i see love from you for them!!!!!! I was adopted, I am white and was adopted by a white family.But that mean that it was a beautiful life all the time..... Because there is always a difference from some family that remind you in so many ways that you are not blood!!!!! You have a beautiful story and thank you for sharing!!!!!
What a phenomenal story. Wow I am in awe and look at who the Grandma lives with. Pure Love! R.I.P. Dad and god bless this family for raising and protecting her. Dad left you in the best hands, his family. If not for him stopping the abortion we would not hear this beautiful story.❤

I love that she wasn’t bitter towards any of the people in her life. Dad, mom, white friends black friends how truly amazing and powerful
I am glad her family treated her well, also she’s STUNNING
Her dad WANTED her, LOVED her and PROTECTED her. Color makes no difference in LOVE. Beautiful story of love, loss and love again. Very happy for you.
One good story but more countless bad stories of racist Sundown towns
Hush that lala land nonsense.. then YT FOLKS DEFINITELY NOT LOVING. AS A RULE.
@@uwilberforce4628...Exactly. I came to say the same thing. Always in lala land but busy overlooking the atrocities that happened and is still happening to blacks and minorities everywhere.
this ain’t love he literally lied to her about her own race
If that's the case, why lie about her race?
What is love? That is the energy this story gives. God bless her dad who loved her before she was born.
Amen!
I know 🥹❤
Please it isn’t “energy” it the “spirit” of God. No where the Bible talks about energy. Everything is Spiritual! We are spiritual beings.
Those who love thy brother knows Jesus. Those who do not, do not know Jesus. They are in Him and Him in them when they love, they are not in Him and Him in them if they do not love.
in today's society, nobody would adopt her, men and women h@te each other today, nobody wanna help raise someone else kids, RedPill movement is countering Feminist movement, the whole thing is a mess!
I am crying for her Dad who missed out on raising this beautiful woman ❤️❤️. He loved her unconditionally and that extended to his entire family ❤️❤️. RIP Dad and Mom🙏🏾🙏🏾
He was the bridge in her life at a perfect time 💐💕 great man, perfect Dad ❤️
Yes me too but her Dad left her in the best hands to raise her regardless of the town she lived in. They loved her and protected her. She was a very precious cargo ❤. I love this story. God Bless her Dad R.I.P.
This is one of the best stories, I’ve heard in a long time. Thank you
I just love how the white family embraced her and loved her and now the white grandmother is being embraced and loved by the black family!! This makes my heart ❤️ melts! 😊
In a sun down town? 😂 embraced?
And the PROTECTED her at all costs!!! Even at the expense of tricking her. She was very lucky to not be made out to be scared. ♥️
Me too❤
@@AyyoShyGurlTvProtection would have been to NOT raise a defenceless Black child in a sundown town. They literally PUT her in danger because they were selfish.
Einstein they fuckin lied about her ethnicity
Your dad protected you, even before you were born. 😭 so sweet. I miss my dad.
"If anybody asks you're white" They knew but they were protecting her. She has a beautiful story.
They could have gotten her killed! Racists know mix people!
Really making her look like a FOOL instead of explaining her mom was black?
Teaching children they must hide Blackness & be ashamed of that part of them is emotional damage you weirdo 🤦🏾♀️
What a racist comment. What about the Black people they didn't protect? Being seen as 'one of the good ones' by people like you isn't a complement
@ho_dontdoit I don't care about her having to hide her identity. As long as she wasn't abused. Her father and his family care for her very well.
Wow. Talk about a father’s love. ❤ So incredible.
I dont think that mom really wanted to abort , just cried out for help and thank God someone heard her ! What an amazing daughter .Beautiful mother . 🌹
It was not her first child. She already had a boy.
Yes! Thankfully someone heard her cry for help and gave this child a beautiful life (according to her). I'm interested in hearing how her life story might vary from her older brother raised by her bio mom who had addiction issues.
You praise everybody but the white man that raised her and loved her from her mother to the daughter but not the man and your assuming the mother didn't want to have an abortion but you don't know that
Yes😊 🎼isn't she lovely🎶
Definitely.
Thank God no harm was done to her being raised in a sundown town ♥️✨💯
For real.( But, we still don’t know what all she endured while growing up.)
That's right..God protected her just like he protected Baby Moses..All praises go to God 🙌🏾
Amen Amen Amen, my ONLY concern. She’s truly blessed To God be the glory
Highly doubt it
I'm a black guy from Texas now live in Arkansas. I've made plenty of money from these sundown town even the most racist one Harrison. Most folks not racist in the sundown towns maybe decades ago but now these folks are moving along living their life. Facts these folks in those towns treated me better than the blacks I come across.
As someone who was adopted… this story was beautiful to hear. Family can be made from blood or love. ❤
@kharonscott Lies ain't love🤢🤮🤬🗑️💩
@@macewindu5610 I understand where you’re coming from. Life isn’t fair. These lies were to protect her so that she could survive childhood. They were easily disproven in her adulthood. #Missionaccomplished People lie to people they love all the time.
Right. Some of your biggest enemies could be your family members and you could receive more love from a stranger on the street.
This sounds bout white.
@@macewindu5610Obviously your not adopted, my white parents loved me until they died, my children loved their Grandparents, you know fuckall
I really enjoyed this interview! My mother is white and deaf. Her family was racist, so when I & my sister were born, she was literally cut off. We were living in a dusty, racist Southern California town, struggling to fit in. Mom also had two other kids, but white, still we were an embarrassment to her family. I was oldest, and looked African American, a Ni&&er. I really tried to Pass, the terrible pressure to blend in was a survival mechanism. Eventually, thank goodness my African American grandmother stepped in because of the turmoil of the times, but then we were shoved into my dads’ inner city environment. My world was flipped 180 degrees. My African American father then raised my sister and myself. I went from being a N&&er, to being a White Girl. It was harrowing. Well, now I’m really glad my Pops took us, because my life is soooo much better knowing my identity. My life became my own, and I could finally stop carrying that awful burden of race. I applaud your resilience and fortitude!
😂😂Her sistas sat her down....they said girl we got questions. Her college sistas, of course. Thats love ❤️ 😍 💖
❤❤❤
That is also an example of oral history. They were taught by their elders the cruel fact that white people adopt children of color and raise them as white. That has been done since the white people came to the Americas in the 1500's.
😂😂
I would have did the same! ❤ Like “sis, we need to talkkkkk” 😂
Facts ✨✨✨🥂!
I was one of the people that reached out to her because her story hit me to the core.. and she responded to me ❤
her father looks like her, I wonder if she could be his kid
their face structure, lip shape, chin shape and eyebrow region are the exact same
The photo with her bow in her hair and the flowered dress with her Dad is so cute. She radiates joy. You can tell her father cherished her. Great story. Also, her biological mother was so blessed to have things turn out in her favor. She lucked out having this amazing woman as a daughter.
Lol
I’m brown and I was adopted by my white dad and he and his family have loved me and treated me just the same as them. I was raised with so much love! There was some racism when I was little by kids but I don’t see racism as a brown woman today. I see more than ever whites accepting and loving me!
Lacey has a beautiful disposition! For all that she went through, she seems to have found the beauty and love in it all without holding grudges or becoming hardened. I'm so glad her father saved her life. What an incredible testament to Love.
SHE GOT IT FROM THE FAMILY THAT LOVED AND RAISED HER
You can tell that she was raised either love.
It’s obvious the famil6 that raised her loved her truly…
What did she go through she was raised in love and spoilt rotten her words not mine!!!

Her story, phenomenal. These comments, phenomenal. Shows you that there is love in this world beyond cruelty, beyond color! Just beautiful 🥰🫶🏾
Bless you so much! I’m from Houston and that shouldn’t matter, but it makes me feel so close to you. You are so incredibly sensitive and kind to your family and resilient to what was hidden from you. I am so glad you have clarity and the truth.
When your college friends told you your truth, I can so relate. My experience was about my anxiety and depression, not race, but I felt truly exposed and accepted for the first time in my life.
Once again, I pray for your journey and thank you for sharing.
She’s blessed to have had so much love from both families ❤
Awww he was such a good daddy 🥰. I love that for her.
This proves that anyone can be a father, but someone we can call 'Daddy' is special. A family that provided this life for her is extremely special. How great that he had the means to provide her with a great life while he was still able and a family to continue to provide her with the love and care she deserves.
You mean anyone can be a daddy but to be Father is a special one. We know this by many women calling any men their baby daddy even though they do nothing for their child.
Zaddy
This is such a beautiful story & I love how humble she was to her biological mother. I just love this it made my day!
It’s a blessing she grew up with people who loved her and I’m glad she was able to learn her whole story and reconnect with her biological family as well as stay so connected to her adoptive family.
Yes imagine to a family that she had no blood connection to
Not sure I'd call that love... Very odd story. My heart hurts over the racists things she must've heard. The whole thing is mind boggling really.
Having a white mama and being loved primarily by my white family is and was a privilege and a blessing for me. I’m always surprised that people seem to want to believe mixed children can’t be loved by their white relatives. Like most of you, l’ve heard the stories about racist white relatives but no one wants to acknowledge the prejudice black ones😊 l love all my relatives and wish l could return to those happier times.
@@Mimi-ht6xr We're talking about VIDOR. A town where they tell black people to leave before sundown or get murdered. Yes, racists come in all shades. (Cookie and a pat on the head for you.) We could talk about how koalas are losing their habitat in the comments as well, however, that's not what her video is about ☺.
@@Mimi-ht6xr@Good point.
🤦🏾♂️Nobody on planet earth thought she was white.
😂😂😂😂
Well, she did! It’s like being raised by wolves or Tarzan being raised by a mom that’s not human.. it’s not that difficult to understand.
Honestly, people call me white all the time and I’m very similar in tone and hair to her. You’d be surprised.
@@MaddyReactions nope! You're way lighter than she is.

aaaannnnnd why exactly is that "beautiful"?
My niece looks like her and she's a wonderful black and white cookie. What a story of unity.
Black and White cookie? 🤦🏾♀️
I'm watching this and think the same thing as everyone else: how is it that nobody in that sundown town gave this girl any trouble when she was growing up? But then I remembered something I went through years ago. We moved from Chicago to Texas in the 80s. I was literally the only black in every one of my classes in high school. I was already homesick and felt like I wasn't going to be making any friends here soon! There were kids who were very unapologetically bigoted and made no bones about NOT wanting me in their class. What's fascinating is that a lot of the white kids for whatever reason took me in - and made me feel less homesick. Even more incredible, the kids who were the most outspoken bigots eventually left me alone and even started being kinda cool with me, and I'm sure that's because of the majority of the other white kids who befriended me- and would stand up for me if any of them gave me any trouble. Sometimes, people can really surprise you in very good ways.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻....you totally get it , great comment
As a BW that went to private school, I always knew from a young age that biracials were treated better than full black people. My best friend was biracial and they accepted her but rejected me. It's been this way since the dawn of the United States. They are much more accepting of them than us. I've noticed the same thing in my all yt sorority and college too. This is why I will never call them black actually. Even during slavery they were in the house, and received much better treatment. Sometimes their fathers left them their properties and educated them too. You should look up some of their stories. One mullato boy said the yt family, even his fathers wife spoiled him and gave him whatever he wanted. It's pretty interesting really. They know the difference that's for sure!
@@edj2045Or the biracial slaves were also targeted for SA by the owners because they fit in more with Eurocentric beauty standards. Some fathers had affairs with slave or free black women and openly claimed their children and provided for them but many were the result of SA and were totally ignored and treated as badly as any other slave. Some masters intentionally got their slaves pregnant so that they could sell the children. You are sounding suspiciously like the right wingers that claim that slavery wasn’t that bad. The ownership of any human by any other is abhorrent no matter the conditions. Even if an owner treated a slave almost no different than his free paid employees they were still forced to work for free and faced the uncertain future being transferred like property if their owner sold them, went into bankruptcy or died.
@@gabrielamora6265 I never disputed anything you said and you didn't dispute anything I said. Many were also able to pass and Sally hemmings own son said that that woman never worked a day in her life. Her job was to care for her own children and she studied in France. Would you rather be Sally, or Her Grandmother? Be forreal. You also never addressed how they got better treatment then and now and how yt people know the difference.They created their own spaces then and did you know they have their own spaces now on TH-cam where they actually talk about how they are treated better? Would you look at that! lol
Yup. In two words: herd mentality. But also, if you've got the majority of people or influential members of any majority group who treat you with respect, then the unsavoury bullies tend to follow suit. People take behavioural cues from others.
Thank God for Lacey's father, his family was amazing to love her and take care of her.
He rescued her ❤ it was meant to be.
Lacy’s mother was going to abort her! How disgusting
When she saw her momma. 🥺 🙏🏾 ❤

This story should be made into a movie 🎥🍿.
@@writers_delight yes absolutely
Yes ✅
Agreed it should be a movie ,but currently there is a movie out set on this stature...but such a blessing to be loved*ty for sharing your story
Why and what would make her story a good movie?
You know she is just as much white as she is black. Her biological father was more likely than not, very white.
It should
That family protected her, shows you no matter where you're at not everyone is the same. Love can be found in the darkest places.
Protected a black child in a sun down town that hates blacks ? R you dumb
This is so awesome! Ihats off to her family that raised her with love and in a loving home . That's the best part of this story .
Wow. Just wow! You are pure class, Lacey Tezino. Anybody would dream of being your mother, father, sister, brother, or friend, and you filled my whole heart with your story.
Her Grandmother is her angel... think of how hard it must've been for her to accept her gay son and his black child in a sundown town.
That child grew up surrounded with love and was treated no different than the other family members❤
You mean biracial
Who said he was gay?

10:59 sounds racist. Can you imagine that in reverse?
I’m just glad the dude asked to adopt her. This beautiful and successful black woman would have never existed✊🏽
Even if she wasn’t adopted by this white man she would have still be successful. ITS NOT ON HER ITS IN HER!
That's not necessarily true!
@@glorious880 did you watch the video? The mother was going to abort her.
You know her Dad truly believed he was her Bio Dad. Sounds like she was truly raised with more LOVE THAN MANY OR MOST KIDS HAVE. She was truly Blessed!
The fact the Grands gave her the warning If anyone asks… should have been a huge clue.
I’m sure with all the Love she grew up with. She had to have grown up very lonely as well. She didn’t fit in with the Blacks or the whites.
That's not true. She could have been adopted by anyone and still be successful
She’s beautiful her skin her hair her fashion her style and personality ❤
Oh girrrrrrl what a story. Lacy my heart goes out to you❤ So. Glad you were well loved and accepted.
She's beautiful inside and out! Looking forward to seeing the movie!
My nephew is adopted. He's biracial. They were in church, this man kept staring at him (he was 6), nephew yelled at him IM NOT BLACK!!!!!!
After church, my brother sat him down & told him SON YOUR HALF BLACK. IT'S VERY VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU LOOK UP YOUR HISTORY & EMBRACE IT! NEVER SAY YOU'RE NOT BLACK. YOU SHOULD BE PROUD SON......IM SO PROUD YOU ARE WHO YOU ARE!
Theyd had him since he was born.
RIP BRO.......miss u so
That’s how it should be with adoption. So many ppl are out here trying to find themselves
He’s black stop the half biracial ish
We should be proud of our family lineage. Especially things we can't change such as racial, religion and or place of birth...I will never denied one side over the other over an archaic law.
@@8719Markit’s cool to be proud but I need to add this so we KNOW WHY WE should be so proud: To love ourselves when we look in the mirror. It’s the only way any one of us can ever accept God. Not for history’s sake. You will cause nothing but chaos & destruction in your surroundings if you do not love yourself.
Please accept my condolences for your loss🕊️…
She had amazing support from everyone throughout her journey. That’s so amazing
I love this story it's wonderful your grandma live with u guys. I'm so happy they treated u like u were supposed to treated with love n care
Her father was a gift from God. He had a big heart. Her mother met the angel that would ensure her daughter had a good life even though his time with her was short. He left her in good hands. And now grandma lives with her.
This is a human story of good people! This makes my heart smile and cry at the same time.
Everyone is a gift from god.
💜💜
I'm so happy no one harmed her. It's so sad that Racism is so deep in America. We're all different shades of wheat some are darker some are lighter. We all are a part of one race that's the Human race. Many blessings to the family that adopted her. This was such a beautiful story ❤❤❤
I've always said we are a
🌈 Rainbow of CLaY 🌈
Various Shades and tints of brown.
Glad I'm not the only one viewing it as such. We're supposed to be the humane race.
Whenever the people let it go, which is often through the decades, the government brings it back.
I'm amazed to hear that white hate black .lt means they don't know GOD, they don't serve Him, and they don't have God , they need to repent because no hater will enter the kingdom of GOD
Yessssss...We will let you know in the most gentle and loving way that..."The Math Ain't Mathin". All the love she was raised with produced a beautiful human being.
