[quote=Anonymous]OP-I am in a interracial marriage and experienced many of these issues you described. I overlooked many of them for years and gave my husband a pass for not really saying much about the racism in his family, until we had kids. Before I could stay busy or not really interact much w my ILS, but once kids came it was harder. The racism you and your family are experiencing is less about you and your husband, but now about your children and protecting them from hateful behavior and comments. Remind your husband he is a father of interracial children and is responsible for protecting them and speaking up on their behalf if and when the issue arises. You are not alone in this and your husband needs to do his equal share. Don’t let him think that because you are the one who is an ethnic minority or have darker skin that it is your job to speak up.
