Well, I'm not black, my mom's korean, and I'm an American. But I can say this on this subject. Most Brits don't mind Americans. Don't be to loud, don't expect things to happen in two minutes, and don't expect good customer service - and you'll be fine.
England isn't like the States. There isn't a color issue here that I've seen - the issue here is nationality. Theres more tension here between nationalities (French vs Scottish vs Wlesh vs German vs Any middle eastern country at the moment).
Come over with an open mind, be willing to accept a new culture, because thats what your going to be living in. We (Americans and Brits) may speak as passing common language, but thats about it. Relax, take your time, enjoy the beer and the sights. You'll do fine.

I don't know about African Americans but I sure noticed they were horrible to Black brits. I was shocked. I am from Canada and just didn't think civilized people would act like that. I actually ended up in a fight because I tore a strip off a girl for called the bartended the N word. After I had a good chat with the bartended and she said that people are always like that to her but she sure seemed to deal with it with a lot of class an dignity. I think she realized that they are just ignorant morons. It did seem like there was a lot of interracial babies not necessarely marriages but this I don't know. I think they would probably treat tourists alright though.
