Ethnicity is not the determining factor regarding trust - rather it is values.

Only to the extent that different ethnic groups have different values, does ethnicity become a factor.

Values are our core beliefs - it’s what we follow whether someone is watching or not. If all I know about you is your values I would know more or less how you would act in various situations - which constitutes the basis of trust.
