AITA for refusing to talk to my grandfather? He refuses to apologize after making racist comments about my girlfriend and then insists he did nothing wrong and that I should apologize for for bringing her to Thanksgiving.

HELL NO stand by your girl. I’m a black woman and I left my ex after he refused to defend me saying “but they’re family. My uncle is old you can’t change his mind”

You are NOT ta. No offense but your uncle definitely is. Apologize for bringing HER to Thanksgiving is actually insane😭 If anything, HE should be excluded.

You’re a good bf fr for sticking by your gf. Before we split, my ex’s mom had said something that offended me, and instead of immediately realizing it was wrong, the FIRST thing he said to me was “well you know she didn’t mean it like that”…💀

Oh I left Thanksgiving immediately with her. My dad is on my side, mom said that seemed excessive but isn’t defending her father.

You said grandfather and I always forget that most of our grandparents were alive when racism was just casual. He’s gotta get with the times because WOW. I’m so sorry this happened. Hopefully he apologizes, that’s not ok.
