This gets us into another important point:
Having "different types" of people in a chapter is a surface-level fix if people do not talk to each other about things that would matter on the outside world (i.e. the difference between Arabic and Arab).
This is why I don't like it when people say things like "whether you're black, white, purple, green, whatever...people are people" or "it doesn't matter what race you are" or "I don't see you as black, I see you as my friend." You don't have to ignore social attributes for someone to be in your social circle. Don't be afraid to civilly talk about things that go beyond the surface level because that's what INCLUSION and DIVERSITY really mean.
