Lol at the few people saying the OP is racist because they prefer a diverse Uni/area
As a British African, Carribean... My family and I have experienced loads of racism..its still a problem
So its fair that the OP asks this question. If racism wasn't this much of a problem in the UK, the OP probably wouldn't ask this question. And yes, I have found that there tends to be ignorance towards minorities, where there is a lack of diversity.
As long as racism exists, Race will matter.
