I get what you're saying but at the end of the day it doesn't matter tbh. I'm pretty sure there are predominantly white colleges all over America (BYU in Utah) .

Obviously if there were colleges that were promoted as "white only" that would be seen as a problem but that's because of our countries history .

My unpopular opinion is college clubs that are about race. For example the Hispanic club (I'm Hispanic) imo when you go to college and join those clubs it's like you don't want to leave your bubble

Any club is meant to be your bubble. It could be cheese club and people would join because they want to hang out with others who share their interest in cheese. Being interested in promoting and learning about one's heritage with others who share that heritage is not a problem. Jesus what am I still doing on Reddit

Was moreso talking about what if I wanted to join one of those clubs? One of my friends is in the Filipino club it and they seem to go on nice events but I'd feel weird if I ask if I can join. Again, I said that's my unpopular opinion

Ah, I get that. Sounds like the problem is you're afraid to step out of your bubble. I shouldn't have assumed, be well
