Marrying someone from the same cast

Salaam Mufti Saab
I am a Muslim of Indian origin. I was born and lived in South Africa all my life and the same applies to my parents. My grandparents (all of them) are from India but moved here many years ago. I am in my early 20’s and would like to get married in the not too distant future, once I have completed my studies. My parents insist that I get married to somebody from the same Indian Cast as we are from. I have often told them, that this is wrong because they are restricting me and Islam has no nationalism. They then told me about a Hadith where the Prophet (S.A.W) said that people must get married from their own tribes. They are very strict about their views on getting married to somebody of the same cast.
Is there anything I can do and recite, to change their mind?
Shukr, Ws
