The Use of Race in the Final Destination Series?

Now, I hate when people point out race in movies because it's usually *beep* and this is absolutely the first time I have ever pointed such a plot point out, but it's definitely interesting in this case.

Something I noticed about the Final Destination series... and please don't think me racist for noticing this, I just find it intriguing that all the white characters are clueless excerpt for the one who has the premonition. Question, has a Black character in this franchise ever had the premonition? I don't think so, but the Black characters are always the most wise about what's going on concerning the big picture from the jump.

Tony Todd in Part 1
Terrence 'T.C.' Carson in Part 2

They explain everything to the others in a creepy way, that I find peculiar... if anything the movie might be using race a little more than people realize.

Anyway, just something to think about. I'll be watching the rest of the series to see if that trend continues...
