Now that Barack Hussein Obama is President, is racism over for American? Elna Baker's upcoming book, The New York Regional Mormon Singles Halloween Dance, isn't all about race, but her story of working as an "adoption nurse" at FAO Schwartz gives anther perspective to racism in America. (MP3 here)

When FAO Schwartz ran out of white dolls after MTV ran a segment about the adoption center … with only weeks left before Christmas, and the baby factory on back-order, you can imagine where things go from here. Rich white families coming in to "adopt," only to realize there's
nothing left but gasp yellow and brown babies.
Now, according to Elna Baker, there was actually one white baby left. Nicknamed "Nubbins" by the adoption center 'nurses', the "display baby" was a factory reject. Its fingers were fused together like flippers, and its head was abnormally heavy. They carried Nubbins around, wrapped up in a blanket at all times, deformed hands hidden, its leaden head carefully propped up in a lifelike posture, as they took turns rocking and bouncing the doll like a fussy infant.

Desperate parents would ask to see the coveted white baby, but when they saw Nubbins' grotesque
flipper-hands and bobbing deadweight head , they said 'never mind.' and turned back to the non-white models. The "nurses" started betting whether or not little baby Nubbins would be "adopted" before the minority babies sold out. First the Asian babies sold out. Then the Mexican babies started moving. And finally, the FAO nursery was left with incubators full of black babies, and one red-headed, much abused, display-model mutant.

And, ...? One day a women with a solemn girl walked in, and after finding out that all white dolls are gone, and asked and told about Nubbins, they said yes. When the girl is asked the standard 'adoption' question: "Will you love and care for the baby?"
She said, "No.",
"Will you read to the baby?"
"No."
"What will you name the baby?"
"Stupid."
Her mother interrupted, "Just name the baby Veronica."

So all the white baby dolls, defective or otherwise, are adopted before black ones. Even the majority of black children would likely pick a white baby if given the chance.
