There are alot of racist conservatives in my family. I'm white and my boyfriend is black and I don't even want to take him to meet half of them because I know they'll cause a scene. I'm so sick of hearing all their bullshit. My cousin especially. He's out here doing crack and has the audacity to complain about how his black neighbors make the neighborhood look bad. Like mf you literally snort cocaine on your fucking porch stfu everyone can see you.
Literally every person I've met from my boyfriend's family has been so sweet to me. I wish my family would be like them.

Hey there, I also came from a conservative racist family so I'm cheering you on. I guess you've already realized you can't change a racist's mind. No matter how clearly you point it out (him doing crack on the porch), the racist will always justify how it's 'different' for them.
Your options are to 1) ignore them, 2) continue to call out their BS and maybe they'll at least shut up one day, or 3) get outta there.
I did a combination of 2 & 3. Whenever they'd say their racist BS I'd freeze the conversation right there and dig at them until they're in a deep uncomfortable hole and the atmosphere is outright flammable. It didn't change anyone's minds but it made them realize that their racism isn't welcome in the open. Then I got the hell outta there. Moved 1200 miles away. It may not have solved the problem but it made me feel better.
Hang out with your bf's family, they sound like way better examples of humanity than those other people. I think eventually the racists will crawl back under their rocks if we just make it clear that they have no place in civilized society. Leave them and move on to great things :)
