How to communicate with HR about why I didn’t like my team /u/DataWizard_ CSCQ protests reddit

I have accepted a software engineering offer but now am considering reneging, solely because of the absolute lack of diversity of the team. A team of 15 people, 14 of them are of a specific ethnicity. The manager is white. I don’t really care about “having no diversity” but from my internship experience, I’ve had moderate difficulty understanding their accents and I had a challenging time fitting in because they seem to be communicating with each other more than they are to talk to me. There are many teams but that team is the only team in the company that has such ethnic uniformity.

Now should I tell HR exactly what I have in my mind as the reason for reneging or would be considered somewhat inappropriate?

It’s a mid-sized company and the constituents of that team is abnormal compared to other teams.
