I think the pendulum is beginning to swing the other way. Folks are noticing how blacks and browns are in almost every ad. I was talking with a neighbor recently, who ranted about having blacks in so many TV ads. As he put it, "Don't shove the race issue in my face." The Federal grants that only apply to black farmers is blatant racism, and I hope the whites that are suing the government win every case. Caucasians are being blatantly discriminated against by the Federal government.
My own take is that I really don't care about skin color, I'm more concerned about their personality. Assholes come in all colors, and so do "down to earth" human beings. I laugh when people suggest that I'm racist, because I judge all people on the same basis... just ask my wife and her family.
