[quote=Anonymous]I don't agree with the PPs saying to tell your ILs off or tell them to never discuss this with you again. Telling people to shut up doesn't make the problem go away - it just gets you more politely worded racism, instead of the overt expressions that are easier to recognize and name. Getting racist people to be more polite makes it easy for not-so-racist white people to imagine that racism no longer exists, since it's not overtly expressed out there in the open anymore. So, I would let your ILs know that you don't agree and that you believe humanity is one, then I'd probably change the subject. If they want to continue, I'd probably excuse myself but I wouldn't yell or say "keep it to yourself!" [/quote]
