My family is racist, to the extreme. We used to live in "the ghetto" i guess you could say, all around blacks. My best friends were black, most of the school was black, i went to a black church, and i loved all of them, they were like family. My mom even had two black friends. Even though behind theyre backs she called them Niggers.
We moved now, to the country, (big difference)

anyway, There's this guy i kinda like, and he is half african-american, he doesnt look it though, he even has blue eyes, and is lighter complected.
anyway, i told my mom that one of my friends (who is white) likes him, and she freaked out. I asked her why it was such a big deal and she said "Niggers and whites don't belong together, leave him alone. You dont like him do you?" I told her No, but i didnt understnad why it was such a big deal, no one can help the way theyre born.  she repeated "Niggers and whites dont belong together" and i said "Yeah cause the color of your skin is all that matters in life, right?" and i walked away crying. She prbly now knows that i like him, but idk. She went outside, and hasnt came back in, and wont talk to me.

What am i supposed to do? What if i really fall for him? I cant be like "Oh btw my mom is racist, so is the rest of my family, so you cant meet them." He would prbly hate me. It's so unfair.

race can be difficult to deal with, especially if your parents are really against it...and it would be very difficult to carry out a relationship if it amounted to that, but you have to run your own life. if you dont care about his race, then it doesnt matter. thats it. it doesnt matter.

Don't worry...you just like him at the moment that doesn't mean somethings going to automatically happen. And if your mom loves you she should accept anyone you love..because it makes you happy.

You should probably tell him that your mom is a racist and that he really can't meet them.

Because that's the truth right? You're not your mom, nor your family.

Your family lived in the "ghetto" and was STILL racist? How odd. Usually when you emerse yourself in another race you realize they're not that bad. I suppose it took the opposite affect on your family, though.

Your mom is going to have to deal with it. She can't rip you two apart or prevent you from seeing each other if you really want to.

There is beauty inside a woman who believes in herself;
who knows she is capable of anything that she puts her mind to.
who knows she can fall, pick herself up, and move on.

I'm sorry. In my opinion, that's old generation logic. It's just a suggestion, but maybe she had something happen to her that makes her think like this?... I would say if you'd wanna pursue him, you'd have to be very honest with your mom. That would be hard, I'm assuming.

Racism is sick. When we lived in New York and I was 6 we had this woman in the neighborhood who got mad when her kids played with me. She called me a little mongrel bitch. They moved away but I really didn't get then and still now why people could hate somebody so much just because of ethnicity.

no it doesn't matter. You aren't your mom, don't change yourself for her.
