I agree, I've never noticed a racial barrier within these music genres to much of an extent. Though I don't really have many metal friends, I always thought that both genres, especially rock, had a fair amount of non-whites both listening and playing in bands. Howver, after listening to my brother's music, I think punk might have even more of what you would call a "racial barrier."

More likely amongst fans at concerts. Beyond that, it's not a noticeable problem. Colloquially people stereotype on what certain people in their minds listen to, but that isn't immediately harmful or worrying.

That's exactly what I'm talking about, actually. I said that punk as a genre would be likely to suffer from this more so than metal. I never said it had any type of extreme be any means.
EDIT: That's off topic, though. I apologize.

Punk has many ideologies, many of which are sympathetic to minority groups and promotion of equality and freedom (anarcho-punk and riot grrrl, for example); however, there are others that are not (like neo-nazi punk).
