strange, why would she bring her colour into it?
Is there a stereotype she knows about?

To be fair, I believe that if you are a black person in the US, our general culture forces you to be aware of your color, while a white person can live most of his life without thinking about it hardly at all.
The mere existence of things like BET, Negro College Fund, NAACP, Black Caucus, etc. tend to do that to you. They are all race centric.
If we had white equivalents, I think whites would, just as blacks do today, be more aware of their skin color, as opposed to just their species.
