is it really a difference in interest or race?

Putting 105 girls in the same res, now there are bound to be some problems. We are the new res of this school and already we are being hated on. Despite the fact that other people hate us, we hate ourselves. There are so many bitter people here. Some people will just dislike you because you are loud and flamboyant.
When some won’t even have a reason why they hate you.
The most frustrating thing about this res is that when there are events, people will not attend. My house warden is always saying we are bitter and don’t show the spirit of togetherness. That only a certain group of people will attend events all the time when the other won’t. What is troubling here is the fact that we all know white people are the ones who do not attend any events. Yet they say it might be because our interests are different. When we have fashion shows, awards evenings, corridor parties and movie nights they will not attend. Well can someone say they are not interested in all those things?I think we must start being honest and stop sugar coating the fact that this is a race issue hence people choose to lock themselves in their rooms. It’s not a matter of different interest but more of a fact that all those events have an influx of black people and whites don’t want to mingle with them.
