[quote=Anonymous]I’m the pp from 15:32. And I’m BIOPIC.

One fond memory from my college days was self-selection or segregation I guess, by Latin students. I’m not Latin, but had a friend who was. They self segregated based on language, economics (out of country at top private college so wealthy) and race/culture.

A group of students owned a house off campus, paid for by one of the dads. During those days I had access to the weekend parties— all Latin music and culture.

When I would see my friends on campus, they always sat together and spoke Spanish or Portuguese.  But no one cared.

In my dorm were a few girls from Central America. They mainly did things with each other, roomed together, etc.

My friends from the Middle East. Same thing. They aggregated a bit more and had closer relations.

This is common, even today, and that was many moons ago.

I just tire of the narrative always being twisted as AA’s wanting segregation again because they don’t spend and won’t spend 200 percent of their time in college integrating. No other groups did.

It’s the double standard that is nauseating.
