[Rosa V.]

It really depends on what you mean by Hispanic-American and Anglo culture and what his upbringing has been. As a young Mexican-American, I have found many things in my environment that I am not particularly comfortable with but have learned to deal with. I have been raised in a predominantly ‘white’ middle-upper class town where racial diversity is hard to come by, yet tolerance of differences is preached in schools. There is no choice for me about accepting ‘Anglo culture,’ but because I have been raised in this environment, I guess ‘Anglo culture’ seems like the norm. Your question is mostly about your level of comfort in a foreign environment; I would suggest asking him about the attitudes regarding race where he lives, and also perhaps visiting before you move there permanently.

Generally, the ‘Hispanic’ culture seems more open and warm within families, but it really does depend on where you live and how he has been raised. I would guess that just the fact that you two are involved means the people around him are generally pretty tolerant and open.
