I've lived in Houston my whole life and I have no idea what this guy is talking about. It's one of the most diverse cities in the country of course we talk to each other lol.

Same here in Houston. I have no clue what this person is talking about. I have had many black people talk to me, and I work with quite a few. There's nothing odd about our encounters.
