My dad is a racist. [I Need Advice]

So, we just watched the verdict of the Derek Chauvin trial, and I was almost in tears, happy that he was convicted. My dad starts talking about how there’s another camera angle of the video of him kneeing on Floyd and that he wasn’t on his neck. My dad is acting like he wants to prove that a white cop wouldn’t murder a black man. My dad also is racist towards Arabs, thinking that they’ll be dangerous which is so wrong. It pisses me off, and I almost don’t want to have a relationship with him anymore. Any advice?

we don't do enough in this country to encourage wonen to become finanically independent. it's like some men are too insecure and think you wont want us if you don't need our money. my advice? Find a way to get your own income and get out.

@BetweenKittensandRiots True. Financial hardship or rather 'security' is the reason why half of women who remain in abusive relationships do so.

@LoveTriumphsOverHate Exactly. it doesn't serve my interest AT ALL to keep women finanically dependent because it keeps them TRAPPED with abusers. more opportunity for me if they ARE independent.
