[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of the PPs could actually explain. White privilege means white majority is not a problem for non-white minorities?...[/quote]

Right! Non-white people going to a majority-white school = normal. White people going to a majority non-white school = help! how do I deal with this weird situation?!

And I'm particularly impressed with the idea that everything will be inclusive and culturally-sensitive at a majority-white school, because that's how white people have been taught to be, but who knows what those non-white people have been taught.[/quote]

Regardless if Caucasians are inclusive or not (Which isn't even the topic), [b]what is the experience with Asian majorities[/b]? There are plenty of threads discussing the inclusive or non-inclusive nature of Caucasians.[/quote]

Asia is a big continent with lots of different cultures. Also, many people the school classifies as "Asian" were born in the US. There is no Asian monolith. So how is it even possible to answer this question coherently? It's like asking, "What is European food like?" or "What language do people speak in Africa?".[/quote]
