You managed to answer that without actually giving an actual real answer.

Why oh why are humans cowards?

Have you been around a baby recently? Little sibling, niece, nephew? Close friend's baby?

Because, I think it's entirely possible to be unable to assign value to a creature so innocent based on something like skin color, even if people carry an amount of prejudice around with them when it comes to persons who are older.

Having been interested at one point in adopting, my wife and I looked into it. Very few white babies out there for adoption; long waiting lists. Most have to go through private agencies. Babies of color, you can generally adopt through public agencies. I have to imagine the costs are much less thru the public agencies. We became quite discouraged by the whole baby adoption process through that mechanism; and instead took foster children. We ended up adopting an 11 year old girl.

I'm not clear on what -point- of that billboard that River saw was; was there anything on the billboard besides the quoted 'price tag'. No such bill board in our area.
