You said that both him and you are half black-white, I think the reason he is doing this is because he sees your place in the group as the next rung he needs to climb, likely because you are so shy he sees you as an easy target. You just have to act indomitable, to cool or above whatever situation he throws at you, when he says something racist just change the topic straight away after anything he says. One day after changing the topic many times call him out on it, but not that often, just say "Why are you such a douche?" say it in a non-caring way then just change the subject again.
Alternative is a bit extreme and he will likely end up in your spot at school, but it will stop him ever talking to you again.
Ok, so because you guys had a shooting not long ago this could work. In no way is this meant to offend anyone, what happened at that school was a horrible thing and I would not wish that upon anyone.
Now when he infuriates you next, just walk up next to him and say not quiet but only so he can hear "You make me want to bring my dad's gun to school" do it with a straight face and make sure you voice is really soft and gentle while you say it. Use friendly body language, (Open palms) (don't touch your face) this will imply that you are telling the truth. Now just before you turn around twich in one of your eyes, make it so that he barely sees it but he will just get a feeling about it. This is a body language crossover, where you were so open a second ago, but then you are ashamed of what you had to say when you were twitched, this will imply (as long as he has average intuitiveness about reading peoples expressions) that you didn't mean to tell that "truth" to him. It should make him feel really uncomfortable around you.
Personally I prefer my spot in my group, so I would go to intimidation, argument, even a punch to his racist face before the second option, but I would use the first option anyways. Second option is pretty bad, but it is most likely a permanent solution. Just depends what level of shyness you have I suppose, but I thought I would give you that out just in case you preferred to be in isolation to being with your friends and that douchebag.
You haven't told us if you have tried anything yet though, I want to know if you have sorted it out.
