There seems to be a lot of controversy about the 4 teams composed of 4 races but I think it is much ado about nothing. The alliances people form in the beginning are generally with their first team, but often times they sell out with the hopes of becoming a millionaire. It will be interesting to see if the race bond is any stronger. I doubt it, because say you are a white liberal woman on a team with a bunch of conservative rednecks, would you want to help any of them become a millionaire? They probably hate you anyway. I think there would be other scenarios where race would not be a factor. Can't wait.
