You have come to that 'fork in the road' that is in the future of many young people. Decide which is the most important, your girl friend or your family, it appears you can't have both. There is a possibility your folks will change their minds if you end up actually getting married to the woman you are dating, but there is no guarantee, it's the chance you have to take. You are the one who will have to decide. Giving up your family relationships, turning your back on them and walking away will not be easy, and may some day come back to haunt you.

My siblings and extended family have no problems with it, just my parents.
So against my better judgement I took my gf to my parents dinner party. I though I could just keep her away from my parents by introducing her to my old friends. However, my mom was able to spot the one white person at the house and correctly deduced that she was my gf. My parents flipped out and now I'm no longer their son until I dump her and submit to an arranged marriage. For all intents and purposes I've been disowned because I have no intention of dumping her. I can live with it but my gf is pretty distraught over it and is asking me how she can get their approval. To make this night up to her I'm going to dedicate tomorrow to what she wants to do. But then what? I don't think she can let things go easily.
Why don't you disown your parents instead?
They're holding all of this pretend power over you by attempting to control your life. Just cut them off. Tell them that you're not going to put up with their racist attitude and walk out the door.
Don't respond to threats or calls. Tell your girlfriend to calm down.
They're the ones who need your attention, not the other way round.

See what happens.
It seems like semantics to me, I don't care if I'm disowned to be honest. My gf is the one who is taking it harder.
Com'on, tell us! Why don't you like Indian chicks?
