I think there is a "Reverse Bradley Effect", I experienced it when I was married to a black woman. As a mixed couple I often got the feeling that some white people were going out of their way to try and let us know they were OK with us. I don't think it was done on a conscious level. A white man with a black woman is different than the reverse, unfortunately, and we lived on Portland, AKA The Peoples Republic of Portland.
