If a movie doesn't have any main characters of race, is it a racist movie?

Ricky, the movie isn't racist, but the article clearly is. The site that hosts it, "colorlines" is a product of the ARC which "seeks racial justice." It's the kind of journalism that would only appeal to someone who subscribes to at least some racist sentiments. Just because a movie doesn't feature minority characters in the leading roles does not make the movie racist as the article suggests. Colorlines should be supportive of the three minority characters that "were" included in the film, since its entirely possible this family may not know or interact with any minorities at all. As long as sites like this continue to focus on race by skin color, racism will continue. It is one thing to "seek racial justice" and quite another to reverse discriminate. The fact is that there is only one race...the human race. Race by skin color is a social construct. There is no "white race" or "black race." Humans all share the same DNA and are all various shades of brown. Colorlines would more effectively combat racism, if that truly were its goal, if it promoted an informative message of unity, instead of perpetuating the very divisions it claims to fight.

some people just feel that if a movie is going to address one issue it should address them all. its kind of stupid to say that a main character must be ethnic for the movie not to be racist. since that kind of says that "nothing ever happens to white people unless there is an ethnic close relation."

That is a stupid concept in every which way.

yes it does seem stupid and it seems like reverse racism to me.

of race like brown and pink or of race like felis demistius and homo erect us

how is it racist
