Bindy Irwin in Free Willy

[universal]

When Bindy met her driver, Bindy says, 'I hope you're not my uncle?', ( a man being dark skinned ). Isn't Bindy being kinda racist?. Even the man not being offended, smiled although he knew what Bindy meant. Or is this all accepted because of her age? Why was it necessary to script it?
Was Bindy and her uncle really in the water with a killer whale?

[yeapb]

I have a feeling that 1. it wasn't considered derogatory in that area or at that time and 2. I believe alot of the shots were with robotics but some were with real, captive Killer Whales.
