This post-racial society you write about, particularly from the perspective of the election of America's first black president, is addressed in the book Audacity of Faith: Christian Leaders Reflect on the Election of Barack Obama. Preachers, academics, and authors crossing racial, political and denominational lines answered these questions as posed by editor Marvin McMickle:

1. Does a black man in the White House signify our arrival in the Promised Land—or do we still have a long way to go in pursuit of liberty and justice for all?


2. To what extent might Barack Obama’s election represent a fulfillment of Martin Luther King’s dream?

Naturally their perspectives vary, and it's fascinating reading!
