Budd Hopkins, John Mack, DavidJacobs, and other UFO investigators have been strongly promoting the "hybridization hypothesis" of UFO abductions. The "Grays" are supposedly kidnapping women and impregnating them, then returning nine months later to steal the fetuses before they can be born. The Grays are apparently doing so in an effort to revitalize their genetic pool, creating some sort of 'hybrid race' from mixing with us. The issue of how such reproduction can be possible - considering the existing genetic differences that must exist between the 'aliens' and us - is glossed over. What I find most interesting, of course, is this color: gray is the color you get when you mix black and white together.
Though UFO abductions do appear to be an international phenomenon, the lion's share of cases seem to come from Anglo-Saxon-rooted countries like the United States, England, South Africa, and Australia. Interestingly, all of these countries face race problems - whether it be with Aborigines, African-Americans, Zulu and Xhosa, or Caribbean blacks from the commonwealth. In the Third World, many people from these First World countries commonly encounter "organ removal" panics. Rumors have spread like wildfire that Americans in Guatemala are kidnapping small children and "harvesting" their organs for transplants. The similarity between these panics and UFO abductions should also be fairly obvious....
The connection between the UFO phenomenon itself (long before the current wave of abductions) and race is curious and bizarre. Many of the first group of UFO "contactees" - who went aboard the flying saucers willingly, to make love to gorgeous Venusians (but never producing offspring) - were loosely affiliated with the "Silver Shirt" movement of the 30s and 40s, a sort of homegrown American fascism which, among other things, opposed Roosevelt and WW II. The 50s contactees seemed to report that the majority of the saucer pilots were "Aryans" - long-haired, blonde, tall beings from Venus or other planets in the solar system. The "Aryans," when not warning humanity about atomic war, often gave messages promoting race harmony, but softly warning against racial intermixture and the "population explosion" of the Third World masses...
It's amazing the degree to which racial nationalists of all kind have seized onto the UFO abduction phenomenon. In DC, I encountered a black nationalist at a fair whose table had literature linking the sinister "Grays" to the International Bankers' Conspiracy and the Zionist Peril. In a nutshell, this pamphlet merely restated the paranoid theories of 50s contactee John McCoy, suggesting that the "International Bankers" had made a deal with the aliens, the substance of which largely being that they would plan UFO abductions and sightings so as to create international financial panics which would allow them to grab up the world's currency.

Maybe you should be more focused on the real problems we are dealing with on a daily basis... Endless war, police brutality, the abuse of power by the establishment, economic crisis, starving children, sexism, classism & so on... Aliens & ufo's are about as important as fantasy football & celebrity gossip.... Let's get ourselves together people, we have real day to day issues that impact all of us that need to be dealt with peacefully.
Well....That explains somethings

This is an interesting post. Do you know where the "black" alien theory come from in your family? Was it something passed along, fear mongering, or possibly other? Could you talk a little more about this please.
Thanks
You ask, "Is Aliens and UFO's racist?"
Ain't you got no good diction?

So the first "humans" as we know it were white? (kind of sounds like the bible no?) These white people are their investment and hence the focus on white people? Where did the black people come from then? Do they belong to another breed of aliens then? Or is there only one breed of aliens? If there are more than one breed, then why didn't other aliens do the same thing with the DNA makeup change for their type of species?
Little lost here sorry...
If you are asking about the racial aspect in general, I feel most people respond to topics of race, religion and sexuality based more on knee jerk or deeply seated prejudgments, or how they feel society expects them to respond more than a response based on taking a momment to ponder and reflect on new or different ideas presented to them.

Why does this subject disturb so many people? Why are so many reluctant to discuss it?
It suggests the OP really is on to something.
