...on the other hand, i did have grandparents who were way uncool about it. my grandmother actually referred to black people as "darkies"... shudder.
As long as people cling to racial superiority ideas or to negative stereotypes about other ethnicities prejudice will always remain, and people will always have beef with interracial relationships.
