I'm in Belmont and I don't sense any tension. The Albanians pretty much just do their own thing though. They don't interact with Blacks and Hispanics. Not that I'm saying there's anything wrong with that.

" The Albanian students said they were simply coming to the aid of friends. ''We stick together,'' said Ylli Mujaj, a 15-year-old freshman. ''We give as good as we get.''



Albanians are the new kid on the block so obviously they are defensive. To be honest though from what I've seen they are extremely racist and obnoxious. They " stick together" so much that they alienate other groups and hoard resources for themselves.

Welcome to America amigos. You will do just fine here.

They aren't really that new in NYC. I would guess they've been around as long if not more than Dominicans.

This reminds me of Glendale, which I never attended, but heard through news stories about fights between Armenians and Hispanics.

It seems Albanians do not have good reputations, not just in regards to NY, but also in Europe, say Italy and Greece. I've read bad things sad about Albanians. Personally I only ever knew one Albanian American girl, but I live in L.A.

In Brooklyn a lot of Albanians try very hard to fit in with blacks. Blasting loud rap music, using the n word probably more than blacks and Ricans, and they are ok with hanging out in black groups.

So for Brooklyn's sake I can say there is no tension between the groups.
