It ain't cheap. And the dollar keeps getting worse.
But you'll be glad to know that Amsterdam is one of the most tolerant cities in the world. Your race will not be an issue*.
*(unfortunately, Muslims have had a bit of a hard time in Holland lately, but there's also a large Muslim community there, so even that would probably not affect your having a great time in Amsterdam!)
