I guess since the HTF universe is set in a presumably North America setting, most writers take the belief that their ethnicity is Caucasian/White, and naturally speak English as their native language. Only one other time have I seen a canon character be portrayed different and that was We Are HTF, where Lifty and Shifty spoke in the Spanish language in some instances. Other than that, yeah, everyone is white apparently...

Honestly, that sounded very racist, though don't take it that way.
