[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly if my AA son dated or married a white woman Id feel like I failed as a mother.   He is in a majority white school though so on some level it is a recipe for disaster.  I don't want him growing up believing that "white" is best. I also do not believe he would ever truly be accepted or respected by his in laws. Only tolerated.[/quote]

White woman here with an AA brother-in-law. We love him. We loved him before we met him because my sister loved him, and we loved him even more once he joined our family in person and we got to know him ourselves. Let's make a deal: I won't assume that black folks are all uneducated with criminal tendencies, and you don't assume that all white folks are incapable of accepting and respecting you and yours.

Wow...your defensive and insulting statement is actually quite off-putting. No where in the pp's post did she insult white people...why did you feel the need to do this re: black people? It just does to show that even "tolerant" folks are prejudiced one way or another. I feel sorry for your AA BIL..does he know you make inflammatory statements like this? I'm guessing no. Your post just proved why I would never want my black son marrying a white woman; you can keep your superficial acceptance because he's "one of the good ones". [/quote]
