Are you serious? There's at least 17 characters who are not Caucasian and a little over 6 Caucasian human characters in Mass Effect.  

I can currently think of: 

Miranda,

the illusive man,

Jack, 

Joker, 

Kelly Chambers

and Dr Chakwas.

 

I probably missed out a couple but I think we can safely say that it's not mainly Caucasian people at all, in fact, it's quite the opposite.   

 

There is a possibility also that Dr. Chakwas is not Caucasian.  The name seems to me to be Indian or Pakistani in origin.  I agree though, I think there were numerous non-Caucasian humans represented in the ME Trilogy... perhaps not all well represented; but clearly the game wasn't overwhelmingly Caucasian (as the OP seems to want to claim).  One group that appears to not be represented are the First Nations people of North America... a least I'm not recalling any typical First Nations names in the game.

I believe Chakwas is a made up name that is an anagram of "Hacksaw."

Possibly, but the internet is indicating that there is also a location in Rajasthan that bears that name.

That's what I thought, but does that leave the Italians in US, as whites or what?

They're white now. A century ago they weren't.

We expand whiteness whenever we need more numbers. In twenty years Hispanics will be "white."

Yeah that's true, I have wondered where her last name originated from. But I don't think the person who started this thread cares about that, he's clearly just going on who looks white.

 

I don't remember any either but my memory is terrible, I wouldn't do lol.

White is a meaningless term nowadays.

 

It is often used as a catch-phrase by various SJW idiots to describe people who should "check their privilege".

 

People are more often described by the term "white" by the above mentioned malcontents, than actually think of themselves as "white".

Unintentional diversity still counts, I guess.
