My brother is married to a caucasian woman. But that is a whole 'nother topic...
Here is want you can do:
I find that being blunt with folks works wonders...
Such as, things your family does all the time--invite your boyfriend's family over and let the chips fall where they land...
I find that it works on the most "Klanniest" of klansfolks when they are confronted with this reality...
My suggestion: Hey, not all, but many a African Americans will go to church--most especially your boyfriend's family. Invite him and his family to YOUR church!!!
Why, 'cuz you are putting folks hatred before God... And if God don't like it, then hey, you will get your answer...
But most likely, God is not going to have a problem with it, if your love is true... Why do you think that God would want you to fall in love with an African American man knowing all the issues you both will face??? And knowing current trends, it ain't too much to bear...
Moreover, if you put your
FAITH in God into your relationship, how is your family really going to call themselves Christians if they hate their fellow man??? I am making that assumption about your family and you, but even if your Buddhist, it would still apply.
I have more, but you can PM me if you'd like...
