However, my error brings up a great point, how would you feel about your chances interviewing with a black hiring mgr and you and the other (black) candidate were equally qualified?

I'd feel like I was at a disadvantage, honestly.
But qualification is only one part of it. There could always be something in the interview that won it for him and lost it for you. He could have mentioned a certain skill he had, or displayed a better sense of humor or personable qualities... no two people are really ever "equally qualified".
