Couple attempts
to stop prejudice
N.Y. (A*)—When Hank and
Dorothy Young of Lake Ronkon-
koma speak of “the revolution,”
they are not referring to any un
derground movement to destroy
established institutions, but to a
visible attempt by many Long
Island families to combat big
otry.
When the Youngs adopted a
three-year-old Korean child two
years ago, little did they realize
that they would be harbingers of
radical change. At that time,
there was barely a handful of
families involved in interracial
adoptions. Today, thanks in
large part to the efforts of Hank
and Dorothy, there are almost
300 couples on Long Island alone
who have adopted non-white chil
dren.
And for the Youngs, what be
gan as a “nice way to get a sis
ter” for their two natural sons,
Robert, 16 and Patrick, 7, has
become a way of life about which
Dorothy simply says, “It’s no
good to have high ideals if you
do not live up to them.”
The Youngs first became aware
of the plight of homeless Korean
children through the efforts of
Faye and Joseph Caperna of Hol
brook, themselves the parents of
six adopted children who were
attempting to recruit homes in
the metropolitan area. The situ
ation so disturbed them that de
spite the fact that their home
had been destroyed by fire, they
determined to find a way to
swing an adoption.
Christina, now 5, was followed
by Laura, 3, a hard-to-place
white child who Dorothy said
“was supposedly tense and un
able to have a one-to-one rela
tionship. What she needed was
love.” Next came 10-year-old
Dorothy, a Korean - American
child, who was followed last sum
mer by Benjamin, a sensitive,
bright, 6-year-old of black-white
parentage.
“It took us longer to decide
whether we could cope with a
child of black heritage than it
did with any of the others,” ad
mitted Dorothy. “We were wor
ried about the reaction of our
families, the community and es
pecially the effect it might have
on Hank’s business (he owns his
own butcher shop) but we came
to the conclusion that it was
more important for us to give
Benjamin a home.
“The children’s different ra
cial backgrounds are a common
topic of conversation and we
want them to be proud of their
heritages. It was important to
us that Benjamine be aware of
his black-white background be
fore he entered school last fall,
so that he would understand any
racial slurs that he might be the
target of. We want them to
know what a bigoted person is
and to understand that we do
NOT live that way.”
Dorothy Young is what one
would call a natural mother.
Sensitive, perceptive, she is close
ly attuned to the needs—emotion
al as well as physical—of her
children. She has been married
to Hank for 18 of her 37 years
and her gregarious outgoing per
sonality is in sharp contrast to
his taciturnity.
“My experience with these
children has made me more tol
erant,” she reflected. “I feel
compassion towards the person
who is prejudiced. They are the
ones who are missing out. If we
hadn’t adopted four children, na
turally our standard of living
would be higher. Robert would
be able to have his own car. But
we have all learned that these
are not the things that are im
portant in life.”
“The children have given us a
great deal of joy,” interjected
Hank, “which is not to say that
we haven’t had any problems.
We felt when adopting Benjamin
that we would find out who our
fair-weather friends were, and
it’s sad to say, some of them
turned out to be in our own fam
ily. But by and large we have
found that a child is able to
break down prejudice.”
In an effort to encourage in
terracial adoption on Long Is
land and to convince the tradi
tionally conservative adoption
agencies that the old guidelines
are no longer adequate, the
Youngs in conjunction with the
Capernas organized the Open
Door Society of New York in
September 1969.
“We want to see other chil
dren get homes,” Dorothy said.
“Many people simply never think
of adopting and they are una
ware of the many handicapped
and non-white children in need
of homes. We have found that
once the seed is planted, people
will respond to the children’s
needs. There has been a break
through. And if we can place
just one child, it is a whole life
time changed.”
Agronomy students

The Texas Turfgrass Associa
tion has awarded $200 scholar
ships to three Texas A&M Uni
versity agronomy students in
recognition of academic standing,
activities and interest in turf
management. They are Don
Dusek of Edna, Larry Finke of
Navasota and Billy Mayfield of
Lorena.
DOROTHY YOUNG says her experience with these chil
dren has made her more tolerant. ‘‘I feel compassion to
wards the person who is prejudiced.” She is shown here
with her three adopted daughters, Dorothy, Laura, and
Christina. (AP Wirephoto)
