"In the middle of the last century, thousands of students from African countries were studying at Irish universities. Some had children outside marriage, who were then placed in one of Ireland's notorious mother and baby homes. Today these children, now adults, are searching for their families," according to this article from BBC News. The article shares the stories of three of these adults, two of whom spent their early days in a mother and baby home and their childhoods in orphanages, one of whom was fostered and eventually adopted.
