I've seen the shows too, try to be understanding and defensive on their behalf. Go to Great Debates sometimes and I don't know what to think.

I wish I could have dated a "dark chocolate" lady. Just never had the opportunity. I always thought black chicks didn't dig on the white guys that much.

Hell, I wouldn't either. You got some big macho black dudes, who wants to hang with some pale faced white guy. LOL

Google, artsy... Can't remember the titles with this old overburdened brain. But there is a body of work (incl. books, articles), on this subtle discrimination.
