My comment was about how the solution soyiuz suggested could go wrong. Your questions are better directed towards him.

  What is "going wrong" in your scenario, though?

    The host is wrongly perceived as someone who dislikes Caucasians.

      And this is worse than not being able to find lodging because of shallow, narrow-minded snap judgments people make about your profile picture?

        For the host? Definitely! For AirBnB? Definitely, since AirBnb serves not only guests, but hosts as well. If I can't choose who to allow into my home, I am not using AirBnB as a host. I am confident that almost everyone shares this sentiment. Imagine if AirBnB required you to let anyone stay at your home. AirBnB wouldn't last another day. I agree that you shouldn't make judgements based upon only the profile picture. On the other hand, if they post things I find unattractive (like making fun of people of another race), I'm definitely not going to let them in my home. (OP seems to be a victim of the former and I sympathize with him)
