Re: Britain... I've been told we're more "casually racist" without meaning to be. This is probably true. Visiting Americans may have indeed met a phenomenon where once they're opened their mouth they lose a fair bit in the way of colour and become one of those terrible Yankees who oppress us with their Coca-Cola and their Hollywood movies.
I don't write about black characters because they don't get written about and it would be very wrong to change that. I prefer writing about well-developed white guys who have a total of three lines in as many seasons of telly.
