Father's Racist Letter

A 19 year old woman has tweeted a letter her racist father wrote to her about her black boyfriend.

There is a chance that this thing could be a hoax ( a lot of internet outrage stories turn out to be) But if it isn't it just shows you how far we still need to go as a society.

It just goes to show the power of love over hate. He obviously raised her to think a certain way but it wasn't with or for love. Our desires and our passions are our own. Unteachable.

 

Well nothings new. I said this before...ww catch hell for being in an IR.

 

What is the color of love?

him and her, him and him, her and her...

 

Well, nothing new there. And the father is right about human beings having choices of their own. He was honest with her about his feelings on this. Threats to throw his daughter out of the house and disowning her is extreme.

People like that will not change no matter what century it is. His so-called Christian beliefs do not echo with the teachings of Jesus Christ, but they speak of fear, anger and hatred. Jesus Christ is not what this man is talking about.

 

Smh. Anyone speaking to me that way would be cut off by MY choosing. I don't believe this story to be real but if it were, life goes on. She can learn to be a grown woman and support herself. I'll never see losing an inheritance as "catching hell". It's the life 99% of us live. And I don't think there's any sadness in losing that kind of hate from your life, father or not. A girl in her shoes is better off emotionally without that ugly influence anyways.

 

Agreed. I'd hope she (and anyone in such a position) continues for follow her heart, and not give in to her father's close-minded beliefs.

 

I think it maybe fake but who knows
she shouldn't be hurt over her dads actions?

 

I tend to be the one to say fuck it instead of drown in "hurt". If she means that little to him, why should she care about his opinions? A real dad would NEVER disown his child for who they date. If he's willing to do that, he doesn't deserve even an ounce of her time/care/concern.

 

No surprise here.I'm sure there are plenty of families that have thought the same thing.I've heard stories from non -Blacks whom had family members that openly dislike their daughters/female relatives dating a Black man.What's funny is most of these same people will swear they're "not racist" even though they don't like their daughters dating a Black man.

 

Yes because this everyone's experience lol
I've had far more ww in my life than you and this is honestly the rarest of situations.
Yes this happens but no less than any other cross cultural relationship. You want to see hell watch what happens to a Muslim girl of any ethnicity dating outside of that cultural.

And on a side not the few times I've seen this happen someone always breaks and it goes back to normal. Either the parents just plain get over it or the girl gets over her "phase"

 

And won't bat an eye if their son has a non white woman lol

 

The point I'm making is it is her family. You tend to ignore what is happening and has happened and may happen. Just because u act or think one way doesn't mean everyone should do it or think that way. There are people who cares about their family and how they think.

Reality check....this dude may leave her tomorrow high and dry. Are you gonna flip her bills?

 

Lol

 

According to you this stuff never happens or you pull out your victim measuring stick....

So all the times people talked about you were full of shit about it.

 

I'll pay you 100 dollars if you can find the post where I said it never happens at all. Of course ww go through shit but it's rarely as severe as you try to make it sound

 

Smh...you know good and well you were the main one who would say that shit.

Lol. Lol you funny
Hell I said ww go thru shit. You talk severity...you do that measuring stick shit.

Like you starting now.

Hell when I show what you said...you deny..sooo

 

If he leaves tomorrow...buh bye. She can pay her own damn bills. She's an adult GL, she shouldn't be looking for money or support anywhere but her own wallet.

I love my family but trust me, I have 2 family members who are complete white supremacists and I cut them off without a second thought. If my own father were like that, I'd cut him off too. I don't need anyone in my life who doesn't respect me and mine. Period.

 

Again like I said....that's you. Not everyone thinks like you.

 

Never said everyone did. I stated my opinion of the letter and my opinion of an appropriate response. She's certainly free to "go homeless" or ditch her bf for financial gain, idgaf. She gets no credit from me for "going through it" just because she now has to live life like everyone else lol. That was my point.
