I lived there ~10 years ago. Whether it's the most racist city, that I can't really say one way or the other. It definitely is noticably and considerably more segregated than other major cities in the country I've been to. Lots of old money and New England elitist types that are smart enough not to say/do anything that will make them end up in some viral video but still treat you in a way that makes it known they think they're above you.

Shortly after I moved there I heard from two other friends, also black, that most black people just go to house parties on the weekends or go out in Dorchester because they'll probably get hassled by drunk white guys if they go out to Faneuil or Boylston areas. Boston Police won't be on your side if any fight comes from it so better to just stay away. Certain areas you probably shouldn't go on St. Patrick's day if you aren't white.  That sort of thing.

In my earlier post, I was referencing Boston not really having much to offer in options for young black guys as opposed to going out in some of the other cities mentioned. Compared to say a Philly where you walk into a random bar after dinner and you'll have both white and black people in there with a variety of music and people just having a good time. Boston you need to work or go out of your way to find those types of places.
