Parents aren't supportive.

We're already talking about this, but it is an infuriating, outdated notion. I'm sorry you're dealing with it.

Omg, I cannot believe this! I don't know what advice to give, but I am so sorry you are dealing with that. So unfair :/ But good for you for not letting it stop you from marrying the man you love!

I can't believe this either. I didn't think people still thought that way in this era. I'm sorry I can't offer more advice except to be strong, love each other and hopefully your family will be able to look past that one day when they see they love you share for each other.

Honestly I'd tell your parents saying and thinking such things in 2019 is an absolute disgrace you will be glad to be rid of.

I agree with others.. it is terrible that they feel like this and not ok to project that onto you. You need to do what makes you happy as you said. Hoping somehow they will get some sense in their heads before the wedding for you

How unfortunate. Let them have their temper tantrum, if they really will do what they have said. Some parents try to manipulate their children by saying these things also. I understand the need to have family and a connection with them but some people are too toxic. Both of you would be better off without hatred in your lives. I hope they will come to their senses but be prepared that they may not.

Idk how old your parents are and it being 2019 has nothing to do with it. No one likes have to be the teacher in a teachable moment but you should continue with your plan to get married if that is their only objection and also continue to casually reach out to them. I can usually get there two days without out someone saying something ignorantly racist. Often those are people in their 20's and 30's so the year has nothing to do it with it. If they have limited experiences with people from an ethicity different from their own then they probably have akinds of crazy notions. I work and play with a ton of 20/30 year old liberal white women and they can be so casually and ignorantly racist it could be mind blowing to the nieve. But they are in my social circle so when they tell me I don't talk black or natural hair is better or that women's rights issues should be just as important to me as black issues I don't write them off I keep engaging and hope that one day they will learn. Hope springs eternal. Besides not knowing your relationship with your parents and assuming you like them it's try not to let them push you away. Embrace the teachable moment and try and get past the outrage. Racism is apart of life.
