Racial stereotype avoidance

First…this is true. Entirely. Saw it in the newspapers and heard it from
comedian Mark Russell during a show of his that I worked on.

It seems that recently on the Today show, there was a white female guest
who was going to demonstrate self-defense she taught. She had brought along
one of her instructors, a black male, to be the attacker for the
demonstration. The staff at Today freaked, and insisted on replacing the
man, explaining that they could not be a party to such racist stereotyping.

The replaced the man with Bryant Gumbel.
