haha you guys want to have your own little ethnic group to which white's couldnt possibly be a part of. its so silly but it shows how race is so important to you and ultimately that you are a racist.

Honestly, if a black family moves into a neighborhood that is mostly white, they will fit in perfectly fine if they are outgoing and willing to make new friends with their new neighbors.

You'd be surprised how LITTLE people care about what color you are if you are friendly and have similar values/education levels as they do. Especially in a northeastern state such as NJ.

That is generally true. Generally.

except when you have someone like sunil's dad move into your town with a huge chip on his shoulder that refuses to accept that white's arent going to be racist towards him so he will make it happen. like that professor jack ass that demanded that he be treated with racism.

That's not exactly true.

If someone emigrates from South Africa, becomes a naturalized citizen of the United States, and they are white, they may be listed as "African American" even on census forms.
