This is not necessarily miscegenation per se.. but here goes.
I just watched episodes #3-5 of AMC's "The Walking Dead" and my gosh.. It seems like the black women became kind of smitten with the White man that got bitten - in the oblique - by the zombie.
They left him by the tree because he was in pain (and would die at some point), and she kissed him pretty good near the lips.
The group of survivors' then go to the CDC Headquarters, and they are allowed in by the lone occupant, a Jewish-looking researcher. Long story short.. eventually the group finds out that there's a countdown timer, and when it hits zero, the building will be incinerated or "decontaminated"..
The researcher tells the group that there's no hope in the outside-world and quick incineration is rather painless, and sure beats being turned into a zombie or watching their loved one's go through that. (Note: The researcher lost his own wife to zombification.)
After some White dudes go ape-sh*t about being trapped in the building as zero hour fastly approaches, the scientist opens up the door, the control room door, and most of the survivors' run for their lives.. they still have to break through the glass at the front of the building.
So.. The black woman and a White woman (who lost her stunning young sister to the zombie scurge) say they will stay in the building. An older White man, who is friends with the White lady, then threatens to stay as well.. that does the trick, as the two Whites are seen leaving the building before it blows.
Right before the building goes kaboom, the black woman's hands and the researcher's hands become interlocked.. then kaboom. Why the ebony-n-ivory theme?
There's one black guy in the group, a short and pudgy specimen, and he initially told the sistah to leave, but that was it.. A short exchange of like "come on", and I don't recall anyone else telling her to leave. The initial "message" is that women are the weaker sex. What is the secondary message, however? That black women are likely to go unmarried and without companionship, so she just gave up? I dunno...
P.S. -- How did the zombies defeat the US Military? There are scenes where huge battle tanks are just sitting in the road.. pretty "weird" IMO. Are "they" trying to dumb-us-down, or did I miss something?
