Personally I have a wide mix of friends of varied ethnic and social backgrounds and it works for me furthermore
My girlfriend is a egyptian woman of islamic descent, and I am Somali muslim and travelling to Egypt with her I have had people over there be very xenopobic towards me, usually men I even got into a fight in egypt, as women are curious about a foreigner, it's a bit of a novelty. I guess the men see me as a threat or something, here to steal 'their' women or something, or stealing their thunder as I am richer than the average egyptian, but over here I am jusdt working nightshifts at a sneaker store as a assitent manager while I study.
. The rest are regular everyday somalis.
