Ethnicity Documentary

We all have different ethnicities. Even here in our small island of Oahu, and even more small, our school, Punahou. With so many different races and ethnicities, many issues come up. As an example not everyone likes all ethnicities. Most of us have gotten used to this, but some of us may still hold some grudge due to some type of stereotype.

For example, here in Hawaii there are many white and asian people. Even though most have become accustomed to each other, there are some asians who might dislike the white people and vice versa. This applies to all races, black, spanish, hawaiian, etc. Some people may make fun of others just because they are different. For example, Asians might get teased for having such small eyes, or the whites might get teased because they are blonde (dumb blondes).

Besides our looks, we might be teased because our accents are different. If you come from mexico, your english may not be that good. The same goes for Japanese, Chinese, and French accents. People cannot get used to the fact that we are all different, and there might be problems because of such things like racism. Even here in Punahou racism may be apparant. For some of us, the asians hang out with the asians, the whites with the whites, the blacks with the blacks and so on. Fortunately only a fraction of us feel this way. Most of us are fine with being associated with people that have different ethnicities than us.

We need to show the different sides of how some people are fine with it and how some people hide from different ethnicities and just sticks with their own kind. Especially since here in Punahou there are many different ethnicites. This would make for an interesting topic of how we all think of each other.
