The ethnicity of outsiders would be any culture that is different from the location they moved to. Or, because they moved into a new area, it is not a culture that they are familiar with.
Slang is language constructs that are indigenous to a particular geographic area, or a certain group of people. All languages have slang, but American English is probably richest in slang. Differences in American and British slang sometimes cause embarrassing moments. In British slang, to "knock someone up" is to wake them from a nap. That slang expression has a very different meaning in the USA.
When we read The Outsiders which is in the 60's some of the words were: Movie house (movie theater), loner (like to be by yourself), dig it (like it), rumble (fight), cooler (jail), heater (gun), fuzz (cops), and icebox (fridge). By the way The Outsiders was grouse!
Slang terms can vary by the area of a country where they're being used, though some are common throughout the US. One slang term for a great job is a cool gig.
The slang term package means the man's private area
