Being black and noticing lds-inc emphasizes white and blonde might be racism in your view?
Being hispanic and noticing none in the photo is racism to you?
Being Chinese or Navajo and seeing few of our ethnic persuasion is racism to you?
Maybe it is racism that keeps lds-inc from singing Jesus Loves Me: 'Red and yellow, black and white, all are precious in his site" just does not fit with the preoccupation with 'white and delightsome'.
Yep, Racist to even notice this stuff in lds-inc official publications.

There are two rows of people of African descent right behind them.
There are three more rows of people of Hispanic origin behind the people of African descent.
