Question for UCSC students (but mostly the black ones)?

Does this even surprise you? Unfortunately, college is only a microcosm of society. I'm a white/hispanic mix guy and one of my best friends at UCSC was a black guy....it was the first time I ever had a close black friend who I hung out with a lot and the experience sure opened my eyes about this type of shit.....not even in stores but just walking the paths around campus I sometimes noticed people purposely turning around or taking a different path when he was walking on them.....it didn't happen as much when I walked next to him I guess I was the "signal' that he was probably a 'good' black guy..... fyi when we turned 21 a bartender downtown refused to serve him a beer......I almost got into a brawl over it until my buddy intervened and got me the hell out before I could do some major damage to the bartenders face.
