I thought this too. The African-American group seemed freer in what they said as a group than I've observed on previous Survivors where tribes were mixed.

I also think there will be some friction in the Asian tribe, because Cao Boi appears to see himself as closer to his Vietnamese roots, whereas he commented that the others have lost touch with their identities.
