[quote=Anonymous] I was brought up in northern European countries at a time when everyone was from their own villages and towns, and there were no foreigners, let alone anyone not white, apart from myself and my father. As a result, I was shielded from skin color discrimination for many years and identify culturally with these countries of my childhood. I can related to your nephew. Please approach this with sensitivity, because he is clearly feeling defensive about this, as if people have essentially tried to tell him that "he does not belong where he thought he did", and "he should defend his own side and take part in the race fight". That is a very rude and traumatic thing to do to him, even though it may come from an instinct to protect him. [/quote]
