This sounds interesting! I like the reverse-racism concept (it’s very unique), and I don’t think it would be too controversial. Here are some ways to differentiate people of different races/ethnicities:
– different accents & pronunciations
– the specific words that someone uses
– Color of eyelashes? (e.g., brown hair with blond eyelashes)
– Mouth, nose, ear, or face shape & size
– Lip size & color/shade
– Size or shape of knuckles
– Are some people two-toned? This could represent being of a mixed race. Maybe their wrists are light brown but the rest of their bodies are dark brown.
– Clothing or tattoos/piercings that express their culture
– Religion
– Attitudes towards people of other races/ethnicities
Have fun! It sounds like a great story!
