here's my two cents
I think that it is ok to only be open to adopting a cc baby, if ou are more concerned with them 'fitting in' with your family. However, I don't understand how some people can be open to every race but AA. Everyone has their own racial history. Even if you adopt a CC baby from eastern europe, they would also have a very different heratige which they need to learn. When you are adopting, no matter where the child is from, you need to be prepared to teach them about their 'birth' culture. Along with that, you should adopt a child who's culture you are the most comfortable with, and who's culture you respect so you wil be able to teach the child the good in their heratige.
