Geoffrey West, 34, second left, cuts the hair of customer Bayione Rogers, 22, at the Court Barbershop in Athens, Ohio, on Wednesday, July 29, 2020. West, 34, runs the establishment serving the city's Black community on the third floor of an old downtown office building. West likes Athens, and said he's faced little direct racism since moving here three years ago. But he still believes there's plenty of racial misunderstanding, among both Black and white people, and he joined one of the handful of protests in the region against police violence over the past few months.
