How do I react?

And you call this person a close friend? Obviously, you don't know her that well, and why would you be friends with someone like that or even give her the time of day?

thatd be just horrible to discover

U're overreacting, imo...thats how she felt, period.

I had a similar situation with a long time family friend who out of no where said she would've disowned her daughter if she went out with a black guy. I literally had no idea how to react.

She is being very judgemental about mixed couples.

There's no need for racism... a simple "No, thank you" should have been enough for her.

😔

Its up to you how you react really. Some people choose to stay friends with people with different views they don't agree with and others do not. This view is pretty extreme nd ignorant, personally I wouldn't continue associating with anyone racist, sexist or homophobic. I wouldn't associate with someone who was unfaithful to their spouse either

I’ve remained friends with folks like this In the past ...but no more. It’s not cool and I no longer just tolerate racist people. 🤷🏻‍♀️
Oddly enough, there’s now a lot less assholes in my life 🤣

Label her a racist and leave her

The first thing that you said is not analogous to the second thing. Did she actually say that she "despises anything that's not white"...or just isn't into black guys? Those are two different concepts. One is allowed to have preferences in that area.

Now, if someone goes off on some truly hateful speech about black people(or any group as such), it gets me antsy. I'm not certain why. I think it's because I believe that you can't put that bad vibe out there and expect anything good to come of it.

I've also seen people turn around and make friends with people of those groups and realize how ridiculous they were being. I've also seen people play the race card to every personal advantage and to the detriment of everyone else.

Some people are on a journey. Others have watched way too much cable news. These are tough issues. People are packages of good and bad. It's a challenge to find the right path.

Turns out some people suck
