It doesn't matter...
It is a shame...we talk about not being racial and not being prejudice, but the by very virtue of worrying about black and white we plague ourselves with faulty definitions of the people with whom we choose to spend time.
As long as you find value with them, your group does not detract from the communities ability to meet its needs...then you hang out with whoever you want...

Nothing wrong with that. Alot depends upon what takes place here. Are the black folks decent and law abiding or would hanging out with them mean that you run the risk of getting smoked in some silly a*ss drive by that some other clown pulls off over some insult real or imagined? If so...hang with the white folks. They still can be just as much trouble as well but gunning one another down on a street corner is not part of the culture.
In any case...it doesn't mean you're prejudiced or anti-black. You warm up to the people you most enjoy being with, regardless of color.

WHAT??? Oh come on!!! Color doesn't matter! Or at least, it shouldn't matter. I mean, you choose your friends after what they mean to you, if you have similar interests and hobbies and if your personalities are compatible. If you're black, it doesn't mean that you can only hang around black people. Maybe you don't know any cool black people, or maybe you have common interests with other people, who happen to be white. When picking a friend, or when hanging around in a gang, you should look at their souls, not color.

I know what you are going through. Im also black and most of my friends are white. I was accused of wanting to be white myself at one point! It doesnt matter what your skin color is, if you have something in common with someone and you get along well together, skin color shouldn't matter to you or anyone else. And if it does matter to someone, they are obviously not your friends...Ive been there.

Who cares? People are people. Black or white, a friend is a friend.

Hang out with people because they are people who compliment you and make you happy. If they happen to be white, so be it. Dr. King said, and I'm paraphrasing, try not to judge people on the color of their skin, judge them on the content of their character. He was a smart guy, don't you think?

It shouldnt matter. Friends are friends, no matter what their race is. But if pople are calling you a poser or like making fun of you than maybe you should try to get a few new black friends.

Its Ok but if you don't hang out with black people they will be thinking that you are not proud of being black and you don't want them around you....You need to hang out more with your own race so you wont have problems...

Why would it? Are you racists? Seriously, that is a very strange question. Be true to yourself and be who you are and stop worrying what everyone else thinks! Helk, I don't care if you hang out with little green men with orange eyes!

because white people are civilized, far too many black people are nuts/ violent. NOT ALL but alot, go ahead and flag me. black on black crime is at epidemic levels because people are afraid to speak the truth because 'it's raciest' to address the issues killing black America.
