The “Racial Sensitivity” episode of ABC’s Better Off Ted, which airs on Wednesday nights, offers a funny, if not particularly deep, examination of institutional racism. Problems arise when the new motion-sensing system at Veridian Dynamics does not recognize African Americans. Solutions include “Operation White Shadow,” in which Whites are hired at minimum wage to operate doors and lights. Full episodes can be seen here.
