[quote=Anonymous]NP here, half white half Latina. I have friends of all colors and heritages. Everyone has their own sense of identity and react to current events in different ways based on heritage. I guess, unlike you, I do not expect all friends to only talk with me about issues related to the Latino community, even when kids were being separated at the border and the horrors of the last administration. Why? Because my friendships are not all about me. My friends have needs too, that are just as legitimate as mine even if mundane. I don’t like to dwell on the negative things in life all the time. Talking about something mundane and silly and normal and takes my mind off things. I expect my friends to be sensitive to my needs, but it goes both way. I certainly don’t want or expect my non-Latino friends to keep their conversations with me limited to immigration etc. [/quote]
