My fiance's mother hates Moroccan women

My fiance's mother hates Moroccan women, please help.  I'm a 27 year old Muslim female from morocco who met a very nice Muslim man. He is also from Moroco at first I thought it was a done deal until I found out his mother hates Moroccan women.

We were both honest to each other, I was ready for marriage and he was just willing to have a relationship.  At first we were only meeting every now and than only as friends but more meetings allowed us to understand each other better.  He was previously married, had a daughter but the entire experience was really bad for him.  

One thing lead to another and we decided to take the step towards marriage.  We decided to talk to our parents back home, my father was happy about me getting married to a muslim.  He told his parents who were really happy he met a nice  American, a Christian or a Jewish woman. The happiness didn’t lost long; when she found out that I was a Moroccan women; she got very upset at him and asked him to choose between me or his mother.  

Hate for Moroccan women was due to the pervious marriage of her son and now she rather have him marry a white women or anyone else beside someone from the same country.  In a way I do understand, since she went through rough time when her own husband abandoned her with her very young kids. I also understand that she scarified her life to raise her two sons but is it fair that she is rejecting me without even taking the time to know what kind of person I am?

Her hate for Moroccan women is so strong even though she doesn’t even know me; she hates me.  I know as a muslim I should be forgiving and respectful towards this older person who is my mom's age, but I feel she has been very unfair to her son because we strongly believe we can be very happy together. I asked my fiance that maybe he should consult with an Imam to find out if he can disobey his mom but he said that his mom suffered a great deal in her life from his father and then from his previous wife and he does not want her to go through any more pain. Please help, what should I do?
