In Square's defense, I don't think they meant for Berret to "represent" black people. He was just merely a black character. And there are black people that are like that. Its not a slander against black people. It's just a personality they chose to give him. Not all old people want to be austronauts. They don't all smoke, or cuss, or hate their assistants. Not all asians are ninja theives. And not all barmaids have big boobs :D There was no representation, it was just characters.
