Azizi, what you say in the opening post is really good. I DO think media has an important if not pivotal place in ending racism. Two shows that stand out from the late 1960s were Star Trek and Archie Bunker. Both of them did a wonderful jobs opening eyes. Hecy, we even got to like a guy from outer space (Spock) and dislike Klingons because they were bad, not because of the way they looked.

AB opened up television for people of colour that got them away from the Aunt Jemima stereotype and used enough comedy in the series to lighten its very serious message.
