Back to the first post:
I thought the same thing about anime. I'm not sure if any white or non-asian people in our school like anime. (There may have been one kid who did, but was actually really weird. Maybe even kinda screwed up. No offence to anime) But then again, wee have lots of asian people in our school. Probably at least half of our class is. Wee also have next to none black people. Mostly white or chinese.
Wee definitely have race things happening in our school. Not necessarily people being racist, but just things that kind of divide people. Wee have a small grade. 27 people maybe. Wee have about 11-12 girls in our class, and until a week or two ago, only 2 of them weren't asian.
Also, to the fitting in thing:
From what I see, I've noticed that as you get older through school, your race becomes more of an issue in terms of who you hang out with. Most people in our class know it too. When wee went to an orientation for our high school during the day, (I'm in grade 8) there was definitely groups separated by race. There was probably a large chinese or korean group, and a persian group too. Some guy that is in grade 9 know was hanging out with all persians, even though he didn't in grade 8.
Anyways, that's a white grade 8's opinion.
