Rare card? I think you mean race card. Anyway, I don't really believe George is racist. I'm just joking about what others have said. People say the Gungans make fun of Caribbean blacks while Watto makes fun of Jews. I even remember hearing that Kamino and clones makes fun of illegally immigrating Mexicans because "Camino" means "path" or "I walk" in Spanish, and considering there's a whole army of brown skinned guys (nevermind the fact that Temuera Morrison is really a Maori from New Zealand) ready to march, surprisingly many believed that he was making fun of illegal immigrants.

Star wars had very little racial diversity in the films, with a few exceptions of minor characters. At the very least, that's semi racism.

Boba Fett in the Empire Strikes Back.

Really looks like this guy over here.
