It wasn't that long ago Spike Lee making a major motion picture in Hollywood was a big deal, Bill Cosby having an average suburban sitcom was a big deal... heck it wasn't that long ego an Italian American marrying an Irish American wasn't a big deal. Check out the parts of the country that built up after WWI til 1950s and see "white" neighborhoods with 3-4 churches. One for the Germans, Irish, Polish, Italian. I'm amazed how different culture is today than what it was in the 1970s I grew up in. People are simply more exposed to different cultures than ever before.
