I must say that I don't agree with your post at all. How can you be accepting of most interracial dating, but not black men and white women? That's oxymoronic to me. I have dated a white girl in the past. That doesn't mean that I don't love my sistas. I LOVE MY SISTAS!! For you to assume that all black men date white women because they feel that black women are inadequate for whatever reason, is propersterous. Also, for you to suggest that your uncle is dating this white woman now because of status reason's is also wrong. Has he come out and said that now that he's making major figgas that a sista ain't good enough for him? But to sort of agree with you, black men who solely date white women peturbs me. I mean, there I can say they might have some unresolved issue. But on a whole, interracial dating doesn't mean that either party has abandoned their race. But let's get to why you are really posting.
Hopefully your family has the sense not to be rude in front of your uncle and his fiance, not matter how they feel. There is really nothing you can do as the mediator. Does your family know that he is now engaged to a white woman? If they do and they have a problem with it, they should have said something about it to your uncle before he comes home and gets put before the firing squad. Does your family have a general problem with white people? Well let them know they've been here and are not going anywhere. Even if they disagree with the interracial dating, they should support your uncle if he's truly happy with this woman. That's my advice.
