Wow I think a kid would pick up on that stuff. I think only certain families should adopt AA kids. We took BR off our profile when we learned that the baby may very well look full AA and when we thought about the reality of that we realized we weren't ready nor were some of our relatives.
The scenarios you are describing are pretty bad ...you'd be spending your life protecting the child and the child would most certainly pick up on it. I'd say not to bring a chid into that kind of extended family unless you are willing to cut them off completely. Quite frankly I'm surprised you haven't cut some of them off already!
There's a lot of great advice you can get on this site and from other sources. I really think you should research this issue thoroughly before moving forward with an AA adoption. Best of luck.
