I ran into that “black man” from a previous entry again. I thought I had my chance to talk to him, to learn about him…but he refused to ‘remember’ the incident two days ago, and when I further asked if Eric was being a jerk to him, he blew me off. Maybe he just sees me as one of those “white guys” that want “explore” his world…little does he know that I know that he can help me, and I can help him, and that we could possibly be friends…He seems very quiet. Which means that he has learned a lot from the people that he deals with day to day. On the other hand, maybe he IS just a jerk. Just because there are plenty of good, decent black men doesn’t mean he is one. If I see him again soon, I will view it as a sign…but I don’t know if he can possibly believe that I want to level with him, and discuss things. I don’t know if he cares about discussing such things. I don’t know if he may have stereotyped me. We’ll see what happens.
