Directed by University of Texas at Austin student Mike Simpson, this 1978 documentary tells stories of adopted children and their parents within the African-American community. Simpson first confronts numerous stereotypes and fears that prevent many people from adopting children in need of a home.
He then interviews children and adults about their views on and personal experiences with adoption. Everybody Needs a Forever Home won a Merit Award in documentary at the 6th Annual Student Film Awards (now known as the Student Academy Awards) in 1979.
Bill Mackie was a professor in the Radio-Television-Film Department at the University of Texas. He now works as an independent broadcast media professional.
