[quote=Anonymous]No. I'm a POC in an inter-racial marriage and there's diversity in the extended families. My social friends and work friends are from all backgrounds. But I find it hard to break into the social scene at my kids' school and our neighborhood. I'm friendly and reasonably outgoing, and often initiates introductions and conversations, but most of the time, the white moms just can't seem to be bothered. Just recently I was at a neighborhood block party. It was a good mix of demographics and the majority of ppl are friendly, except many of the white moms. When I meet another POC mom (all different from my own background), 9 times out of 10 they're warm and receptive. With the white moms in my area, it's like 3 out of 10, maybe? Same thing for when I go to kids' birthday parties. [/quote]
