I honestly don’t ever remember any book explicitly saying a characters race. I’m sure there are plenty, but my imagination of the characters race, if I even thought about it, was likely influenced by the country I was raised in based on the predominant race within it, not the book itself.

Maybe if she simply read books written by authors in her home country, or maybe wasn’t obsessed with white people all the time, her brain would be capable of imagining other races??
