From Wikipedia:
"Racism is a belief in the moral or biological superiority of one race or ethnic group over another or others."
I think that that answers your question.

If you mean Brits and English in particular, they are far from being perfect, while other white races are waging war on each other. As a woman I wish I looked Italian, or Brazilianas they are lovely. And there are some gorgeous looking black guys. Nobody is perfect, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Hitler had a thing about the perfect race, so I wouldn't shout about it. Oh and Italian men ARE perfect.!!!!!

Yes. Duh.
Saying that any race is 'the perfect race' is being racist. Biologists have noted that the genetic difference between, say, black and white people is almost negligible. The idea that any one race is, merely by virtue of skin colour or genetic descent, intellectually, morally or physically superior to any other is the purest moonshine.

I am a white woman and I do feel that is racist comment...due to NO ONE IS PERFECT......so that is saying every other race is inferior....So nor is white, black, indian, mexican, any other race, perfect.......That is insane.......but I do realize we live in the USA and we do have freedom of speech...I am not saying you are bad for saying it or asking it....It is just my belief none of us as humans are better or perfect compared to any other human...

Absolutely.
I am white myself but certainly do not consider myself superior in any ways.
I don't mean that I don't like it.........but hang on a minute !! The perfect race ???????? What a lot of crap !
Sounds like some neo-nazi crap..
I kinda of agree some times that " why should whites be ashamed?".......dunno.....I am me, not my ancestors. So unpc...but to jump to the idea that "whites are superior".....aren't we going back some 60 years ago here ?
The future will not be in the hands of the "whites" as you call us anyway.....Clever people have their own ways...
Don't know if it is some kind of provocation. Have not read any of your other Q/A........should have......letting it go..(tired !)

well its certainly being arrogant. on what do you base this assumption? ossama is quite fair of skintone, as is bush, a murdering megalomaniac, as is his pet puppet blair, and so was joe stalin, adolph hitler, lennin and pol pot...
murderiing despots to a man... so no, white isnt right, its just white. as shyloc observes in the merchant of venice, if you cut me do i not bleed? beneath the colour of our skin, we all bleed red blood. all men are created equal.
