[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Beverly Daniel Tatum wrote a book about this. Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?: And Other Conversations About Race https://www.amazon.com/Black-Kids-Sitting-Together-Cafeteria/dp/0465060684# [/quote] Well? Why are they?[/quote] She said it's due to normal identity development all teens go through, combined with the US' racist history that has impacted social and cultural groupings. Kids are trying to sort out who they are and what groups they belong to. Self-segregation is one step along that process before they become an adult. She wrote the book in the 90s and an updated version came out in 2017. It's in most public libraries. [/quote]
