So if the picture was of a white man, it wouldn’t be racist?

Exactly.

The only racism here is people seeing this and only seeing a black man and not seeing that such a person actually exists.

It is a picture of a real person.

That person can be any color.

And if it had been the same picture with a white man, some kid would have turned to another white kid and said the same thing, "Is that your Father?"

It is nothing more than a picture of, "Don't let this happen to you."

Political Correctness is nothing more than a grievance looking for a place to whine.
