My father is extremely racist; ironic given that one of his brothers is adopted and black. He wants nothing to do with this brother. Even more ironic is that my sister had a child with a black man, so he has a mixed-race granddaughter. He loves this granddaughter more than anything and can see past her skin color; yet, I'm now dating a guy who is of mixed ethnicity, and my father doesn't want to hear anything about him.
