A (usually black) person in a television programme who is there simply to please people of his or her particular ethnicity.
The family who have just moved into Wisteria Lane in 'Desperate Housewives' are token black people introduced by the makers to avoid complaints from people that they are (rightfully) representing upper class Americans as white.

the token no- in a situation of dating, flirting, etc., when a girl says NO, but does not mean it. The token no can be used as an advance to continue whatever the action was. -Also, the "token no" is used by women to play the role of a women and can be used to show interest in an action, or conversation, (through attraction) and not seem like a slut.
1. I was busting on the girl from the bar, and she gave me "The Token No"- After that, I really cranked up the cocky+funny!!
2. she was trying to test me to see if i was a wussy, so she used the "Token No." man, after that I really kept pushing her! you know I did well that night!!

The liberal act of labeling any black people that work for their political adversaries as tokens to shame, harass, and humiliate them for working with their political adversaries that the liberals project their racism onto.
Our best strategy to trick people into believing conservatives are all racists is by using tokenism to run as many people of color away from our competition.
