Pretty much same for me.
I grew up in a white town. We just didn't have blacks - or Hispanic. It just wasn't something that was discussed. The only "colored" people we had were the Italians, they all seemed to live on the same street in a row of rather average houses.
Boot camp was a shock for me. Suddenly I had to live in the same room with black men! I learned to get along - quickly.
