You do not indicate your age, so I am going to assume that you are school-age.
If I were you, I would wait until you are 18-years-old, or however old one must be to be considered an adult in your area. Once you are 18, you should be able to date whomever you wish.
If your parents are as close-minded as you suggest, and if you are a juvenile living under their care, unfortunately, you cannot do much without their permission.
When you are 18, then you should be able to date whomever you wish.
Now, there are many ways in which you can warm them up to the idea.
Have you discussed racial issues with them? Do you know for certain they would "kill" you?
Some parents would, some parents only say that. Whatever the case may be, your best bet is to wait until you are of age.
Good luck. I'm sorry you have to live in a culture where this is even an issue.

Is he a nice guy, studying now or have a stable job..? Parents look into these things. If he doesnt have any trouble w law or he isnt a trouble maker, you can still meet him. Its ur life, not ur parents life. Keep telling ur parents that he is such a nice guy..im sure once ur parents really see how nice ur bloke was, they will melt..

okay I know your probaly going to hate my answer but this is how I feel, I think that people should date, marry, and choose to have children with people of there own race and color. For one very important reason that your probably to young to realize. Children from a mixed race never know where they belong, the culutral difference are way to big and I doubt seriously that your parents are racist there probably trying to protect you from being hurt.

Your parents sound super close-minded and ignorant if you ask me, but let us not bash the parentals shall we. Maybe you should just explain to them that you really don't think it's fair that they can tell you who to like or in that case, tell you where YOUR emotions are supposed to be headed, just based on what someone looks like.

His race shouldnt stop you from seeing him. If you really love him then go for it. Tell your parents to open up and let you two date.

ask your parents why they are pre-judgeing people and make a good protest. if you convince them enough they might want to met him. or not but just try.
