Funny you should mention that brother. I have posted this before on another thread.
The only attempt I ever made to marry was to a Somali sister about 4 years ago.
She and I had know each other professionally for quite some time.
I knew her father and brother from the mosque an had prayed salat next to them many times.
So I ask a somali brother to set up a meeting for me with her parents.
They told him absolutely No; and wouldn't meet with me.
Because I wasn't from their tribe, or their country; plus I was white.
So I don't see myself going down that path again..........
Somalis, Memon, Punjabis, Pathans, most Arabs, most Gujus - these people usually marry their girls within their community. Why dont you look into a Bosnian?
