<human>: Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?

I have just started seeing this guy I met online who is Lebanese. We both live in Canada and I am white. My parents are Christians and I moved out and am practicing Buddhism. His parents were born and raised in Lebanon and he and his whole family is Muslim. 

I personally like him because he is a totally sweetheart. He is close to his family and he is in training to become a police officer. He and I get along really well and have a lot of fun together. 

The problem: my parents. They don't seem to approve of him because he is middle eastern. My mother is the type to see a middle eastern guy on her flight and become visibly nervous. He is obviously not a terrorist and they don't seem to care about the fact he wants to be a cop. 

He has told me that his family is completely open to me and the fact I am not Lebanese or Muslim and that they have mixed race couples already in the family.

I havent put a label on our relationship yet because I am scared of my parents disowning me. They are really traditional and nearly disowned me when I got a tattoo. 

Anyone have any similar situation or advice dealing with racists parents?
<bot>: I am a white girl and my crush is Lebanese. My parents are racist and don't approve of him solely because of his religion/race.
