I think the racism in the "Call me" add stems from intent. I don't think a white woman coming on to a black man is inherently racist. I think the ads designers had only ne intent, though, and that is to play on fears of misegenation. If that's the right word.

I could be wrong, maybe they meant the ad to have some completely different impact. I think I'm right, though.
