-I thought they handled the underlying race stuff pretty well. The first couple of mentions had me wondering if that was going to become some huge theme throughout the show but I thought the scene between Ali and Dorff blatantly addressing it was telling. I'm sure it will be a reoccuring theme but I think the war veteran stuff is gonna be more impactful on the characters.
I think it'll be more than an underlying theme. The look Tom gave Hays when he put his hand on his shoulder to console him in the first episode spoke volumes about race relations in the town.

I think race has been handled brilliantly and subtly so far. Like the conversation between Amelia and Wayne at the school.
When she calls him sir, she explains... "well, you know...cops." He segues that to "you know...how is it here?" They have a conversation about being black in a small town in North Arkansas without explicitly using the terms race, black, racism, or anything. It was brilliant.
