It depends on whether the person is brought up in the states or not. For american borns, that generally doesn't happen, so you're right on that. HOWEVER, if they are international student, then it's a different story. In my school, I always see the Japanese and Korean students never get along well. It's a culture thing back in Asia that one group always tends to think they are "cooler" than the other. Especially most of the trends in east asia are either set by Japan or S. Korea nowadays. So it becomes more like a competition between these groups, and I've heard my Japanese friends talked about it. It's more like a pride thing going on. I think that's the kind of racial grudge that Tau is talking about.
But as I said, this generally doesn't apply to american borns.  |
