This is an old topic but i just found it so I figured I'd comment :)
I'm white, DH is black. I'm the first white woman anyone in DH's very larghe family has married, although another one came soon afterwards. They had no issues although they were quite surprised. My family wasn't concerned in the least.
We don't really have any problems related to race except occasionally DH gets upset when things come on TV like on the history channel or movies about the past before the civil rights movement - I love movies like the long walk home and the power of one and stuff like that. He hates them because it makes him angry. He just leaves the room while I watch.
My daughter is 4 and she really has no idea and doens't care - she just knows that she is brown and daddy is brown and mama is kinda pink and she is a micture of both of us :).
A little asian girl once asked me - why am I pink and my daughter is brown ? lol. It was cute, very innocent. I told her that her daddy is black and I am white, so together our child is brown. she nodded and understood :).
Gotta love simple logic :)
