I think both you and Vince make valid points Sonny.
From the late 60's through mid to late 70's
I did quite a bit of work for black weekly newspapers.
When covering white venues, interactions with police, etc.
without doubt the black reporters and photographers
got hassled more than us white guys
(at least up until '74 or 5).
The reverse - us white guys covering black venues;
no problem.
(I'm talking about up here in the Milwaukee/Chicago area;
YMMV in the south of those years)

George Lottermoser
