"Now you have to confront prejudices, biases, and racism," Jada added.
The single mom confessed that she couldn't comprehend how others have navigated those issues. "I don't know how every single person of color has gotten through this. I don't understand," she revealed.
"I learned soooo much from this episode about HOW and WHY black children are adopted by parents from other cultures. I also got a lesson in what it takes to prepare white parents to adopt black children. Gammy and I got schooled in so many ways. I’m grateful to @iamkristindavis for having the courage to share her experiences, fears and knowledge around this very sensitive subject cause it ain’t an easy one to talk about. In @redtabletalk style ... let’s make sure that when we continue the conversation, we do it with grace, compassion and kindness," Jada captioned the preview clip.
