Some food for thought

None or very many of us felt corret about crossing lines so to speak even though it has and will still be done.

It is just a matter of people feeling at ease with thier group.
Sorry it took me so long to reply, I was on vacation but...

Your point is understood (somewhat). But I urge you to do a little bit more research about the founding of multicultural orgs because many have NOT in fact sprung up because of a lack of the desire to expand by previous existing groups. As well as other orgs, i.e. Latino & Asian orgs. While people may find comfort in what you term as their "own" they were also addressing the needs of a community who's needs and presence were at the time of founding, under-represented.
