"the baby won't be speaking a language he doesn't speak"
He could LEARN it. I started on Duolingo in 2015, there's online courses at FutureLearn, both are free to take, with payment options if you can afford them (Duo to get rid of ads, FutureLearn if you want a certificate).
It's not about the language is it? It's about LW having something he doesn't, and wanting to share that with their child, and instead of recognising the value of it to her, he is shouting her down and calling her racist. I bet 100% he is calling her racist to shut her up rather than because he actually thinks that speaking a minoritised language within the family is oppressive to Black people.
