    Thanks for the response. I guess I’m more familiar with Korea and Japan. Japan being the worst the this regard. Definitely know the “dark skin” racism being strong in both Korea and Japan. But Japan takes it a step further and basically just only accept Japanese and others will always be outcasts.

    I don’t know. I guess it’s depressing. I moved from the southern US to the west coast and just felt like it was a great place with a lot of diversity that my kid could grow up.

    I just don’t want my kid to be looked at as “well, you’re obviously different” when going to school. Here, it’s not an issue at all. She’d be among many others.

    It’s really not something you get at this degree in anywhere else in the world. And, well, I guess it’s the reason we are seeing this type of white supremacy and racism take power. It’s a reactionary action.
