I'll be damned. I just watched a TV program in which a white family lives with a black family and get this, they switch races. Professional make-up artists turn the white family black and vice versa. It's so they can experience the world of the other race.
It was on FX channel at 10 pm EST. "Black. White."
The white family could easily pass as black—the dad was a bit iffy, tho. But with the black family, only the dad could look white. The mom had the typical big african american nose and lips so she looked biracial at best. The son looked like Michael Jackson's offspring.
EDIT: In the beginning, the black family taught the whitebreads how to act black. The white woman said something like, "So uh I guess when I come in (to an event where she would have to interact with black people), I'll like high-five everyone and talk in jive?" I could see the black family struggling not to roll their eyes so hard that they spin like casino slot machines.
Ah here's a link to a review by a real writer:
