In a perfect worldSkin colour would be as much of an issue as eye colour. We wouldn't have tossers like Jamie Foxx play the race card just because Tarantino calls something 'Ghetto' and film and television producers wouldn't need to include the token black/asian person just to make up numbers and avoid being called discriminatory.
It's a vicious cycle. I'm under no illusion that there are still a lot of mouthbreathing racist fuckwits out there, not just in the US, but all over.
The problem isn't solely on the whites though. A whole lot of the black community just love to play the victim whenever the opportunity arises (see Jamie Foxx).
Unfortunately, the world isn't at a stage where we're grown up enough as a community to put the race issues to rest. So instead we'll have to wait another couple of hundred generations until we've all interbred into one lovely shade of mocha. Assuming we manage to exist that long...

mouthbreathing racist fuckwits aren't really the issue here though; it's the implict / unconscious bias that's already been mentionedand it usually manifests itself as positive discrimination in favour of what you are familiar / comfortable with / your "normal" instead of overt racism or sexism
