Koreans

[Ed Evanhoe <evanhoe@arbuckleonline.com>]

Dan,

I suspect what you are sensing/seeing is not hostility but simply the 
uneasiness of people who are not yet sure they belong, thus they tend to 
settle in areas with others from their own country and view those outside 
their tight-nit communities as potential "hostiles."  This is not unique to 
the Koreans.  It was true of the Italians, the Irish, the Chinese and all 
other immigrants to the U.S. during their first generation or so.  In other 
words, they are strangers in a strange land and are uncomfortable outside 
their own peer group.  This takes time to get over.
