Archie discriminating against his customers - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I'm referring to a particular situation in "Sammy Returns." A black couple in the restaurant section mention that Archie put them in the dark corner of the bar section until Murray put them in the restaurant section. Although Archie may have adopted the slogan "We welcome minororities," it sounds like discrimination is implied here. Do black people only get to set in the restaurant section if there's no whites to put there instead?

I don't think it was done on purpose.
