racist??? why??? Micheal Jackson is trying to look white and we don't call him racist. where does this political correctness ends and sanity begins? People need better things to do with their lives. if whites were so racist, how would a black man become president? how can they join the military and work for the government? how is it possible that they walk amoung our communities? it's what you do with your lives that decides what type of person you are not the colour of your skin and it has been proven many times. WAKE UP!!!!!

First off, I know that "white face" hasn't been a stirring part of our nation's history..come on now. Do you really understand how normalized racist images of non-white people became here? Of course things have changed. But by the photo above, not as much as we're all led to believe. Black people were also able to fight in WWII, but were not allowed to buy a home for their family when they returned from the war unless it was in a black neighborhood. The Federal Govn't has always been segregated, just like civilian society. I'm tired of hearing this pseudo-liberal/progressive banter by some, like yourself. In one sentence you will turn mute any discussion about legitimate racist imagery, then proclaim your openness to judging a person solely on how they live/their decisions in life. You know that's a bunch of crap in your mind. Just because you don't think about the rampant racism in our country (and it's multiple manifestations), doesn't mean it will disappear...

It would have been a lot more offensive if it had been a real n!gger (all too common).

Racist, not xenophobic.
