The sub-rosa answer is: “of course not” but the politically correct answer is “sure”. The truth is sort of in the middle. Individual people of different races can and do get along but that’s not the way to bet on the group level. The question devolves into why the difference between individual and group behaviors? A big part of the problem is the lack of specificity on the parts of the different races on what exactly identifies the race of a person? The answers range from appearance, .. skin color is the obvious first answer to the generally politically correct answer that race is an artificial construct. The latter is proven incorrect by the obvious choices made by most people. There will always be outliers but the way to bet is to follow the obvious choices made by most people. As in the forrest, the red squirrels go with the red squirrels and the grey squirrels go with the grey ones but once in a while, probably because of an urge the different colors get along. People of course aren’t squirrels and in America we see more and tolerate more race-mixing so it’s probable to answer that yes, people of different races can and do get along… Don’t forget to use But.
