Re: I don't care what they were trying to say

"I guess they wanted to say something along the "racism is bad" lines, just didn't know how."

I think that most people would agree publically with that statement. I think that the film went a little deeper. I have lost count of people who say they are not racist, yet look critically at mixed marriage couple, or the children of a mixed marriage, as though racism only equates with slavery or black only restaurants, restrooms, and hotels. The purpose of Guess Who, as I see the film, was to demonstrate that racism is present in those who are willing to work with persons of color, socialize with persons of color, believe in equality, yet are willing to do so when their sons and daughters want to marry, and they must welcome such persons in their household.
