Not so much a casting choice as a general comment: Why so little interracial dating on 24? There are two pairings I can think of offhand: POTUS David Palmer and Anne Packard in Day 3, and Hassan/Reporter Lady in Day 8.
Yes, we all love Annie, but maybe a Black!Renee?
One thing that irritated me about TV Star Trek: Black Vulcans married other black vulcans, etc. In one AU Deep Space Nine ep, Jake Sisco married a Black Bajoran, so he could marry out side his species but not his race. Not a problem for Klingons, who were burried under so much makeup you couldn't tell the ethnicity of the actor.
