There is nothing wrong with this thread. It’s perfectly normal for people to want to hang out with those who are similar to them based on background, culture, and upbringing. An African-American student wanting to know about the AA population at UT is fine. There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s a perfectly understandable question and concern. All in all, there is a tight-knit black community here at UT, but AA students don’t JUST hang out with AA students, necessarily. It’s all about the individual so if you want to branch out and get to know others outside of that community, do so! If not, that’s your choice. Simple as that :)
