The point of the class is to conduct interviews with people of a different racial or ethnic identity and to listen to their stories.
When asked who he interviewed, the young man (White/Asian biracial male) in my class said:
"Well, she was some girl I had met on the bus a few months ago. I couldn't really find anyone, so I was flipping through my phone and I saw her name and I thought, well, she looked really exotic, so she must be something. So I called her and asked her if I could interview her."
(The young woman was a Latina Asian American)
Might I mention that this is the same young man who said a week earlier,
"When I talk to girls, I have to use softer language because they're girls and I can't be as vulgar."
