I realize that there are still people alive who experienced racially offensive things. That doesn't mean we should tip-toe around them until they die before trying to move forward, though. I don't really view the swastika thing as a similar example, as it is one symbol whereas what we are talking about is much more broad.

If the choice is between oversensitivity and undersensitivity, I think undersensitivity will get us to a post-racial world faster. If we remain uptight and keep pointing at everything that could possibly offend anyone all we're doing is reminding everyone that they should be offended in the first place. I was not offended by the impression in question, and to be honest I didn't even give it a second thought. It wasn't until their was public outcry that I even thought about whether it is racist or not. In my opinion it is time to shut down race double standards. They don't help anyone, they don't protect anyone, all they do is perpetuate the visibility of the inequity.
