People should marry based on shared ethnicity to maintain their own cultures.

Answer 1

People can be of different ethnicities and still have shared life experiences.

This captures the central idea by emphasizing common experiences across ethnic lines rather than conflict, cultural preservation through endogamy, or complete cultural erasure.
