I myself am an African-American Goth, my mom doesn't approve of me being goth either. It took years for me to become comfortable with who I was. One of the things I did was, I started wearing all black; nothing fancy or decorated, just basic black. As I got older I started to experiment with things that I liked, such as the band SlipKnot. I bought one of their T-shirts from Hot-Topic and started wearing it, slowly but surely I began to wear the lace, and the spikes, and things of that nature. When I was comfortable with myself (and learned not to care what other people think) I went full blown victorian goth. Don't worry, your friends will accept you with open arms. Remember stiff upper lip and there are plenty of African-American goths. :)
