<p>youdon’tsay and perazziman,</p>
<p>My son isn’t the kind to join race-based organizations, either. He’s the kind who wants to do math, play ninja tag, play his violin, and have a great time learning and enjoying life. He’s very apolitical and truly, his ethnicity has not been an issue, ever, except for curious people wondering why he’s darker skinned than we are.</p>
<p>I was hoping these were just isolated incidences and he definitely doesn’t want to talk about them and wants to move on.</p>
<p>I figured that it wouldn’t be an issue at MIT.</p>
<p>perazziman,</p>
<p>I think you’re right and so I think we and our son realizes this is just the world we live in and these are the inconveniences that one might have to deal with. I just wondered if others have dealt with this and what you did (if anything).</p>
