My suggestion is to not identify yourself with just one group or race other than your own. Its difficult for young somalis who grow up in the west becuase they automatically identify themselves with black culture becuase they are black.
I tend to think of my self as somali and look at every other group equally from the outside. I had allot of friends from different social circles and races but they never mixed, i mixed in with all of them.
I was in the african students association in college, the Arab one the muslim one. I went to the islamic muxadarat and lectures with mostly arab and indoneseian students. I played rugby with a mostly white australian group and got close to them.
and since i was dating an asian chick and loved japanese/hong gong movies and mnga i spent allot of time with asians, some parties me an dmy buddy were the only non-indoyar.
so i advice people to look in from the outside, you wont get confused that way and you will understand and enjoy the company of people of different background.
