Thank you. The US is considered a cultural melting-pot. For example, some of the white kids that live in the inner cities try to copy the stylings of the black and latino kids in those areas. Some areas black kids try to copy what the white kids do.

I know that blacks in England and Ireland intermingle with other people-I was trying to find out if that's the case with Scotland.
