I had to stop watching after three or four episodes of season one, because of the ridiculous portrayal of the racist white guy, and absurd, calculated diversity of the cast
The racist white guy, Merle, disappeared for a while and then came back in Season 3 (or was it 4). He was pretty much given a hero’s death.

LOL.
So you pretty much know absolutely nothing about the show.
Thanks for opining.
Right, because after the zombie apocalypse only one race will survive.
I admit that Merle was a caricature originally written to make everyone else look good by comparison. He was concieved as a throw away character in a six episode season, and he was written the way a hollywood writer who has never been outside LA would concieve a southern white man. However, the actor playing him, Michael Rooker, actually did a great job with what he had. Being trapped on a roof he had a good scene and was able to get the audience's empathy. He then comes back in the third season, and his character has been much more well thought out. I give a lot of credit to the actor for giving the character depth, and I don't think they would have brought back the character if Michael hadn't made a good impression. Michael Rooker has gone onto a lot of roles off the strength of his portrayal of Merle.
