Actually, I think that the main problem is that this question is... the wrong problem ! The problem should not be if there should exist some meetings to discuss of some specific problems with only concerned people (black, arabs, women...or plumber) but why these people need to meet only together to be able to express themselves freely. IMHO, the real problem is that we seem to be less and less able to discuss freely, to listen to other opinions and to accept that other people may have different point of view. It's harder and harder to express himself freely in public without someone feeling bad, insulted, either right or wrong!!! So people meet "together", to be sure to hear the other say exactly what they want to hear. "We don't talk anymore", we try to convince the others that we are right
