Look at the LA riots for a prime example; no white could traverse a black area without immediate repercussions, and no black could approach the korean area without immediate repercussions.
Stealth? total avoidance would be my advice; move around, not through.

I agree that moving like in a computer game won't get you far. Assassin's Creed is ridiculously simplified. However I do think that social stealth is necessary and good at a certain time.
Then again, it's all about knowing when to shed your skin.
...and then hopefully stand without hiding, without fear.
