[quote=Anonymous]As a person of color, my feeling is that parents are not really reaching out for their friends to be friends with my kids. White moms try way more with other white moms. Many don't even come over to introduce themselves. When I approach, they say hi but don't really include me in the conversation. My kid's soccer team is diverse; it's so wonderful and the parents are more inclusive. I'm quite senior at work so it's somewhat different, but I see how people look at me without really seeing me and it's folks in my reporting chain who would probably see and say hello to a white counterpart. For many, people of color are invisible or a non-entity.[/quote]
