i was watching this show w/ my cousin and she is 8 and i was like- woah! this is on disney channel for little kids? there were a number of comments about race in this like how the lady tells raven that she was a biracial version of her, and then how one of the girls tells the white girl (srry- sounds bad but dunno how to say it) that she is positive that she has to have "some black" in her because a white girl can't dance like that. the whole time it seemed they were just talking about their race and it was weird i think especially for little 8 yr olds to see that.

I find those comments (not to mention the op) interesting considering Sabrina's character wasn't white in the books. Almost like they were addressing it, but not really.

Anyway I'm sure the OP was under 12 at the time.

Rest in Peace Johnny Otis, Etta James, a Rhythm & Blues legend & a true artist you will be missed.
