One thing that upset me was watching "Bring It On: All or Nothing" with Hayden Panettiere and Solange Knowles. (I know, I know...I was bored and there was nothing else on TV)
Hayden's character transferred to a mostly-black school and they constantly referred to her as "white girl", "barbie", "vanilla latte", "frosted flake" and made comments like "looks like we're finally gettin some snow on campus", "coffee is like crack for white people"....
I wonder how people would react if it was the same movie, only racial roles were reversed and Beyonce's sister was the one dealing with racist comments. Sometimes I think racism has done a complete 180 to where people are afraid to even mention a black person's skin color, but racist comments about white people are ok.
