Salam sister. I honestly cant see why people are blanking you. Correct me if im wrong, but it is near enough obligatory for someony to reply back to an offering of salam. Did you have any contact with muslimas before you came to Islam? And secondly if you ever go to any islamic lectures, try and speak to some muslimas there and slowl build up a relationship. InshAllah it will be made easy for. Salam.
Aww sis, i totally understand how you feel. When i first became muslim i felt exactlly how you felt. When i smiled at sisters they would never smile back etc. Do you go to the masjid? When i used to go to the masjid nobody would speak to me untill i just forced my self to talk, and it turned out that they were as shy as i was. Do you have any muslim friends that you could talk to?
Sorry i might have misread your post. I thought you said you gave them sala. But regardless if one has any kind of love for the sake of islam [muslimah] they would most likely smile back. And i dont think its co your white. I find that white muslims/reverts get more attention and smiles/salam ect than other muslims. so no i dont think its cos of your colour.
go get invovled in any sister talks or activities in your local masjid, also try attending jumuah in a place which accommodates for sisters. inshallah and hopefully im sure the sisters you meet will accept you with open arms.

Asalamu Alaikum sister:
I know in the beginning it's difficult. Just realize something. Those Muslimas you speak of did not smile back at you but Allah Ta'ala is pleased with you and your intentions. Sister, do not feel sad. Those who make you feel isolated do not realize that Muslims come in every color under the sun, speaking different languages and from all the corners of the world. We have a very diverse Ummah, Alhamdulillah. For those who may not realize it, just make du'a that Allah Ta'ala will open their hearts, Inshallah.
I'm all the way in New York but yes, the Sister Brigade is to the rescue

As-salamu Alaykum,
Sis, I am sorry to hear that you are having a hard time!! When first converted I would sometimes get the same thing but I knew why I was having trouble ( you see, I don't cover and I think the sisters weren't sure what to make of me...like maybe I was kufar just making fun, ya know?). You said that you cover so I really don't know why this is happening unless our sisters are very shy...Sometimes its hard to make friends with strangers on the street so try making friends at the masjid, but don't stop greeting those you see out in public.
And I just want you to know that you have a friend right here (ME!!:sister: ).....
