brother in law is black obviously. When my son was younger he used to take him out all the time. HE said every time he would get looks. Take him to the park and people would stare until they heard my son yelling Uncle Mike. He took him to an outdoor mall and they had a big playground in the middle of it. Mall security questioned him once because people called mall security on him. He pretty much stopped taking him out alone because of all the bullshit.
