Deep, deep south racism: Mexico's caste system...

Mexico's Aeromexico airline and its ad agency have apologized for a producer's casting call for an ad that specified that only light-skinned people need apply.

Mexico's population is largely dark-skinned, but Mexican television ads routinely feature light-skinned actors, sparking accusations of discrimination.

The commercial has not yet been made, but a casting call for actors specified "nobody dark skinned" and requested "white skin."
