The world isn't perfect yet. We must respect each other, but sadly, it doesn't always work that way. I find that an action like the one the OP posted (the removing of a comic because of a complaint) works only against this. The people against this action will only be fueled to do something against the person (or persons) who started it. And repect for each other will go out the window...

According to my husband he never had a person of color in any of his classes at school, not sure about college, but everything leading up to college there were no people of color anywhere. I think it's rather challenging to find friends of a different ethnic group if you dont' actually meet anyone of a different ethnic group. Especially at your school which is where most kids form friendships as they are growing up.
contrasted with my experience of going to a high school near a military base there was a lot more diversity at my high school and as a result I had a more diverse group of friends.
