I live with my half brother. We are Japanese, but I'm half white and he hates white people so he treats me pretty shitty.

He has this family loyalty thing that had him step up to support me when I needed somewhere to stay, but he refuses to speak to me and just looks irritated whenever I try to talk to him. When I brought some friends over, he pulled me outside and told me he doesn't want more white people in his house and made me ask them to leave.

A guy followed me for a long time on my way home from classes. I kept it a secret from my brother bc I figured I could just start carrying a knife to defend myself with if it goes bad.

One of my (non-white) friends let it slip what happened, and my brother is pushing for me to take rides from him to/from class now. I know the whole "my roof my rules" argument but I don't want to spend more time with him when he so openly hates me in the time we already spend together.

He said I'd just hurt myself trying to defend with the knife, and that pepper spray, stun guns etc aren't as good as "just not being in the situation to begin with". What should I tell him to get him on my side?

He doesn't seem very social from what you wrote. Does he treat other people, Japanese or non-Japanese well? It seems like he's against all <100% Japanese people and is only supporting you out of an obligation to your Japanese parent.

If he cares more about the life experience and language and culture of being Japanese than just the racial aspect, then you could work on a relationship by coming at it from that angle and showing your Japanese side more than usual. But he may just be shut off completely.

By the way, are you male or female? And does this take place in Japan or somewhere else?

Beggers can't be choosers. When the time comes that you are no longer living on his charity, you can live by your own rules
