Why can't people from different races get along?

I’m a 17 year old African American female. My school is made up of approx. 85% Whites, 10% Hispanic, 4% Asian, and 1% Blacks. Most of my classes have been AP/Honors classes and I’ve noticed that most of the time I’m the only Black girl in each class, so I really don’t have anyone of my race to be friends with. I have a lot of friends of different races, but very little black friends. The black population at school isn’t big. I wouldn’t say that people “don’t get along”, but that most people are inclined to hang out with people they can relate to. Not just by skin color, but by culture, ideas, interests, and activities.
