...how about the theme to romeo and juliet? this story is as old as dirt, and still as tragic each time it is told...
but to play devil's advocate for a moment, step back just a lil and see if there is any other reason that your parents might have... seventeen years ago, i fought to be with a young man my parents disapproved of, i was blind to everything they saw so clearly....love truly can be blind, deaf, and dumb... protect yourself...
if it is as simple as an issue about this guy's race, that is sooooo sad... your parents might be missing out on a very special individual... the true test, though, is not whether he makes them happy, but you... best of luck...
"don't be reckless with other people's hearts; don't put up with anyone who is reckless with yours".....be careful, guard that which is precious...
and a bit of wisdom that i have come to know full well... when someone shows you who they are, believe them.... (the first time)....
hope all works out for you in the best way possible!
my two cents....

November rain, I think there's one song by Craig David (is it "can you fill me in" ?) which relates the same kind of story.
I'm not sure really, but check out the lyrics...
And I'm sorry if your parents are truly racist, but you sound clever enough to ignore them. Just make sure you're right about this guy's feelings and about your own...
Take care.
P.S. Your nickname is beautiful
