The best thing to do is just be friendly to everyone. If you do befriend people with different backgrounds than you, than go with them to events that you otherwise would never have gone to. It is quite an experience to be the only person in a place different from everyone else and in most cases people will appreciate your curiosity and open mind and they will enjoy teaching you about their culture. Do the same for them too so that they can experience some of your enviornment. I also think taking classes on feminism if you are a guy, african american culture if you are white, or buddhism if you are of a western religion will help you to break those barriers you speak of.
