The last couple of seasons the "token black" couples have been courteous and good game players etc. while some other familys in the race were psycho ugly americans.
I think we are beyond tokens.
The winners last season and the Blacks this season were just good folk.
I didn;t even think about their race, except the slight clumsiness with their family name.
Good folk are good folk -- color is unimportant. The Paolo's are NOT good folk and will fall soon.
