I really don't care who marries whom (e.g. there are some Latina chicks whose bones I'd jump in a millisecond), but do we really have to try this hard? Since when is it a badge of shame to marry or co-habitate within your own race? It just seems all very contrived to me.

This has been quite noticeable. Also if kids shown with two white "parents", many times a adopted(more than likely) other race kid is show like at dinner time or breakfast

Burglar alarm commercials never show a black perp doing the crime, but most times it is a white guy who burglarizes a black owned house and is cought by a black cop.
