Is there a breakdown of AA (as in, African Americans/what some are calling FBA) vs. foreigners and children of foreigners anywhere?  Some people who want a school with more black children are interested in the former.  The latter, while it provides a diversity, isn't the same.[/quote]

I’m glad you note that. There’s lot of  Muslim East Africans  in Nova (very nice people) but to the honest white Americans probably have more in common culturally with black American than an Ethiopian, Eritrean, Sudanese[/quote]

There's no "probably" about it.

Americans are Americans.  Being able to borrow the foundation and setting powder of a woman that arrived in the U.S. in the last generation does not mean we share history, worldview, experiences, values etc.[/quote]
