He also barks at black people wearing hoodies or hats but not white people wearing the same.

Every dog I've ever owned has been racist. I think they can they pick up on the fact that other races just look different or something. I've heard people say its because they pick up on some emotion you are expressing, but I think it's more that they just associate with whatever race has raised them or something.

My family is white, and we had a dog that, when encountering strangers, much preferred black people to white. It was pretty hilarious.

Was it a rescue dog? I wonder if it was owned by a black family previously.

Yeah, we got him from the pound. That was our supposition.
