If wanting to include other ethnicities in something, even if it's just to make the people with the money look better, I'm all for it.

“This is great, I can’t wait to start working on projects”

“Oh, we didn’t hire you because of your potential to actually contribute. We just needed a black one to make us look good”

See how stupid that is?

Call me crazy but I think people should be hired, find mates/friends, and associate with people based on who they are, not what color their skin is.
