Obviously you're going to see that a black man has differently colored skin than a white man. The thing we need to all realize, though, is that it just doesn't matter.
We see brown eyed people and blue eyed people all the time, but we don't go attributing prejudicial notions to either eye color. But we still say things like "you have really nice blue eyes," etc.
We have achieved an eye-color-blind society, by which I mean we see the color but it just doesn't matter as far as our evaluation of the person's worth.
Now we need to work on other bodypart coloration issues, namely skin.
