    I work in a Detroit mall that has a mix of several races. Dearborn has the highest concentration of arabic people outside the middle east and they can seem to be tame and quiet in public. The white people are always polite. The black people are normally loud, sometimes outragious, homophobic, and bad walkers.

    I've also noticed how blacks are loud in public, especially in movies. I think that blacks are just naturally more outgoing than whites. They usually have this care free attitude. Eventhough this might get on some people's nerves, this is a good trait to have.

    I think it's a cultural thing. My mom's side of the family is Italian, and we are louder than hell when we're together. My paternal grandfather was also Italian, and most of my memories of him involve him speaking VERY loudly. Both Italian and African-American cultures tend to be passionate, and I think that passion carries over into communication styles as well.

    It's funny, because I've been annoyed by this, but I've increasingly noticed among Chinese people as well. Regarding making it racial when it's not: where I live it *is* black people more than white people- however it is generally working-class African-Americans: not professional African-Americans, not Africans. I see many black people every day and it breaks down clearly this way by class and ethnicity. Black people as a whole seem to take the hit for the behavior of the socioeconomically challenged. As someone else pointed out, teenagers of all backgrounds are loud; I have to admit I was like that for a few years when I was trying to show that I didn't care what anyone thought.
