I think it is difficult to try and track down any factual information regarding this kind of topic. I also thought it was assumed that most things posted about sociologically intensive topics on an internet message bored were immediately thought to be conjecture and as such taken with a grain of salt.
I believe the poster that spoke of the idea that more blacks being okay with (for lack of a better phrase) doing porn is based on socioeconomic factors that affect African-Americans, not necessarily anyone of African decent. Meaning that African-Americans (read- in America) for the most part do not usually have the opportunity (or do not take advantage of said opportunities) for different means of economic advancement.
Pornography for the most part is seen as low-rent in American culture and as such there is a high level of stigma attached to people who chose to make porn their profession. As such, people who have the opportunity to do other things successfully or people whose communities are the harshest critics tend to stay away from careers in the pornographic industry (this is part of the reason that we don't see many Indian or Asian male porn-stars - there also isn't necessarily a strong demand for them in the U.S.).
So in conclusion African American men make up a disproportionate amount of the porn community (much higher representation than the population in the U.S. would suggest) mostly because of the fetish-ization of black male sexuality, but also because of the greater socioeconomic workings of the country. Why bust your hump working a crappy day job when you could move to the valley and have sex on camera? Rant Over
