[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's what we know. She can't be friends with those girls because they aren't befriending her. Perhaps that will change later, perhaps not. If you and she are interested in her developing a more diverse friend group, that may have to happen outside of school. [b]Jack and Jill, the Links [/b]etc may be options if she isn't sporty. [/quote] These groups are even worse than what she is already encountering. These two groups are VERY African American and not at all welcoming of Africans. Remember these are the same groups that used to use the paper bag test to see if you were light enough to get in - that was happening even in the 70s. [b]They are very superficial and have no interest in learning about or accepting other cultures.[/b] [/quote] Sad but true. My best friend grew up in J&J and even she won't join. [/quote]
