[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Long Island is not at all diverse -- not in the way most people want diversity. I grew up in Dix Hills (Town of Huntington) and it was all white, Italian,and Jewish. My brother on his first day of kindergarten described the only non-white boy in his grade as "chocolate". There's a sliver of the school district that dips into a neighboring town and that's where the POC came from. Read this: https://projects.newsday.com/long-island/segregation-real-estate-history/[/quote] Commack here. I agree, BUT, while I wouldn't refer to Commack as "diverse", the small diversity we did have, we were all friends. I was naive about the struggles of growing up as a POC, because my black friends were all UMC. [/quote]
