Is the whole "X other race looks homogeneous" just because the person claiming that doesn't have much experience with people of that race? E.g. a Ghanaian in relation to SEA people?
Pretty much. I can tell 99% of Asian people apart, and I can tell black Americans apart from Ethiopians, though most of my exposure to hispanic people are Mexican Americans, so I can't tell them apart from other Latin Americans. I also can't tell the difference between a white American and a European until they start talking lol

I'm a white dude who lived in Asia for years and now I have no trouble telling Asians apart, but at this point white people all look the same to me.
yeah I think so
