Funny that this should come up right now, when there's a big to-do over the cover of Vogue (I think that was the magazine) showing a popular black athlete and an equally popular white model together. The objections seem to be that it is racial stereotyping. And yet, when we say no thank you to someone of another race (for whatever reason), we're racist? I don't say no to anyone for reasons having to do with their ethnicity. But when they throw that ethnicity in as a reason for me to accept them, that's a red flag to me. Who's the racist?
