Are people of different races not honest with each other?

For example, everytime I ask a non-white friend if something bothered them in media or whatever, like whether the movie pocahontas was offensive, they are always like "nah, idgaf" but every time I watch a YouTube video like "modern native american on pochontas" they are always like "this movie is an insult to my ppl" and stuff like that.

Inconclusive.. just because your friends and people you know aren't able to be honest with you doesn't mean anything.. and regardless of whether they are or aren't able to be honest with you - they may not be able to speak for their *people* or any other people... and.... even if they did... this doesn't mean that *races* are dishonest with other races..

Just too vague and inconclusive

@AgapeLove lol well I never meant as such that they aren't able to be honest with you either...but it is a possibility.. we all know sometimes we are more careful and cautious around friends.. perhaps they don't want to bring up awkward things..

I did consider the possibility they feel that way.. but said that they don't necessarily speak for their *race*

I wouldn’t doubt their honesty; there’s just a wide variety of opinions out there and, for example, Native Americans aren’t all going to feel the same way about something and whether it’s offensive. The problem comes when you try and make a definitive statement like “Native Americans are offended by Pocahontas”. Whose opinions do you take into account then?

It's more subjective when it's not overtly or intentionally racist.
