Foreword: I am not anti-soldier just anti-useless War. Additionally, I am hypersensitive to race.
One of the all time popular videos on YouTube is entitled Remember Me and works to make viewers identify with images of US soldiers (pictures of soldiers with one word titles like "Husband" or "Sister" etc).
Here's my issue...why are all the pictures asking us to identify with soldiers images of white/caucasian people? The only African-Americans on the video is an image of a grieving black family and one image of a black soldier in color guard. I find it disturbing that Ms. Palmer shows many different family member/loved one images of white people but doesn't deign to realize that there is a high percentage of other races serving in the military.
