[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Speaking as a South Asian woman with mixed kids, it's because the white kids exclude the non-white kids (or rather, the white parents exclude the non-white kids from a very early age), so the non-white kids feel like they have to stick together. At least this was my experience as a child, and my kids' experience, too -- even though they are the children of a South Asian mom born and raised in the midwest and a white dad. I'm as American as apple pie, but the white moms have always still excluded me. Even after talking to me and realizing I'm not an immigrant (they're scared of immigrants).[/quote] I am white and live in an area with many predominantly south Asian neighborhoods and it’s the reverse there. The few white kids in schools stick together. [/quote]
