Your mother is obviously a racist and I am glad to hear that you do not share those same feelings. I don't know why you shouldn't still talk to anyone you like. You have to look at the complete picture and staying at home may be in your best interest to finish school. By living with your mother it doesn't mean that you have to share her distorted view of others. I would certainly have your boyfriend refrain from calling however as I don't believe he needs to put up with that kind of abuse.

Let's get this out of the way. Your mom is racist. She might not be openly, violently racist, but you said yourself that she discriminates among your friends.
You gotta realize that our parents' generation is...weird, in some ways. You still have to respect her as your mom, so sometimes there's no getting around letting her have her way. Still, you do recognize that there is a gap in thinking there, and make sure that you keep your mind open! I know it sounds kind of like a "duh" thing to say, but it's true.
My father is deathly scared of black people. If he sees a black guy anywhere near the car, he will lock all the doors. He goes out of his way to avoid black people in the street. I recognized this at a young age, and consciously reject his racism. Though I still listen to him as a father, It takes effort on our parts to push past the weirdness that "leaks" down to us from our parents.

First ask your mom what is the problem with your bf. Then ask what is the prob with black people. Then if she is racist tell her that you want to move out and live with your sister.

If you really care for him, keep seeing him no matter what anyone says.
