If riding on streets that have people of other races living there is
normal for you, why do you say "oh my!?"

That's a rhetorical question, of course. I know why you said that.

But really, if you think that's special enough to say "oh my!?" about
what do you say about those of us who live, and ride, and walk, and
shop, and eat in restaurants regularly in neighborhoods with people of
other colors?

Nobody I know thinks any of that is special.
