Inoticed a few things that might make naruto a bit racist weather they know it or not:

Everyone from the cloud wears shades.
Killer bee is a rapper, the very 1st black guy we see
(this might not be true) killer bee is fat with corn rows, which is SAID how asians see black people.

Darui is like the leader of one of the units so no I don't think its racist, A is the Raikage as well

Its all in the character for them to wear shades I don't think its aimed to be racist but to in cooperate various cultures with in the Narutoverse , sometimes to show the culture you must show a character with a common stereotype i.e the shades which isn't necessarily a bad stereotype and not exactly restricted to one race so it shouldn't offend anyone and btw they aren't fat they are bulky/muscly

Also is rapping not seen as a positive stereotype ? If anything kishi is admiring the culture by in cooperating aspects of the culture into his art :)

Shino also wears shades. Is Shino black?

OT: I don't think it's meant to be racist, some extremely powerful characters from the land hidden in the clouds are black. I don't think much of it; I think it's just easier for him to draw white characters in black and white than have to go through all the shading, to be honest.

Eh, Killer Bee is a rapper and he's black, so...

Also, did anyone else find it funny Darui using "Black Panther" lightning technique...

Naruto has its moments.. But i dont think its really that racist.

If anything, its positive and not negative..

No hes just stereotyping he made the Raikage the most powerful person in the Shinobi world

There are very strong black characters as well 3rd Raikage and Killer Bee are both arguably top 10 the Raikage is my 7th

In fact you could say its postive sterotyping there all muscular with the sexist anime women like Mabui and Samui.Killer Bee is meant to be funny as well..

Look, when you bring up race issues, it starts to become relevant again. When you people keep labeling people by their race and always brings up topics about racism, you're keeping the issue of race alive and making it stronger. People sometimes forget about that racism is still around, then an issue like the Trayvon Martin situation comes along and makes the idea of racism relevant again. I don't mean to sound like a too-serious guy, but this just really pisses me off
