I have a friend, Luke ,whom I have just recently grown closer to. He is african american, he goes to Stanford University, he dresses very well, he's funny and basicaly a wonderfull person. He has been seeing this very nice woman, who happens to be white. The problem is that her mother just recently met Luke. At first her mother was excited to meet him. After all her daughter had just said she was dating a Stanford student, but she did not tell her mother Luke is african american. When her mother found out he was african american she became angry at her daughter. She does not want her daughter to date a "******" is what she said, right in front of Luke. Luke told me what she had said when he came over the other night. I couldn't tell how he felt about that. He did not want to continue to talk about it. I'm white I've never had to deal with racism aimed at me. I don't know what he is feeling or how to help. Advice?
