It is all so sad. The world is so much more interesting when we see its many colors and traditions.

Right on, Willie my friend. Interracial dating is not a problem, only racists are a problem.

EJ, you are correct. You do have the right to do what you want. But can't you see what a shame it is to isolate oneself from others just because they are different looking? I would not allow my child to attend this under any circumstance. Why? Because it perpetuates a myth, and an evil. We should look for what we have in common with one another, and celebrate that which is different. And as far as who my daughters date, or dated. I never cared about the color of their skin, their religion, or what part of the area they lived in. What I wanted to know was how they treated my daughter, what their values and plans were, what kind of a human being they were. It always worked out.

To discuss this as if there were any legitimacy to an exclusionary event based on "color" is to waste ones time. Never speak truth to a lie.
