Whenever you go its your color defines who you are. When you go in other countries who dont know racism they will call you of what color you are. Why should be angry if they call you yellow, black, brown, red etc.

People here get testy over those terms; yellow, brown, black etc. because it is not just a color but a value or meaning behind it. Prejudice in many forms has always been around. Usually it was along religious or class limes within people of the same nation, and race. It was when the Europeans started to colonized the world did it get kicked up to another notch or 5. And it was not behind land or borders or any of the usual stuff. If was because certain people thought certain others were less than human and therefor devoid of being treated as such. And even today where people people would want to think Jim Crow was perp walked out of the building, you have people like the Gaede twins and their followers, invite him back in. Strange thing is. everyone see it but want to deny they see it for it would tarnish the facade of America the great melting pot. Like going to an BBQ and seeing a loose 23 foot anaconda near the kiddie play area with a big lump in its middle and an empty stroller. No one wants to ask "anyone missing a kid" and what is this big snake doing here?" Asking that might take away from a great BBQ it is suppose to be.

You need to get out more.Ever heard of the Holocaust? Ethnic cleansing in Bosnia,Rwanda,et al? How about Romans crucifying Christians?Racism existed long before the United States came along.

Racism is everywhere. If you are white and American go to Germany and see the reaction. If you are black or white, go to Mexico, and I don't mean the tourist spots, and see the reaction and listen to the comments.Other countries don't like Americans.

Racism is one of American's favorite past times. Whites hating Blacks hating Asians hating Hispano-Americans hating Native Americans hating Whites, and so on.

racism is everywhere that there are different people in one place.
Look at Sudan, the Native Africans are being exterminated as we sit here, 400,000 dead so far.
Racism is worse in some countries and better in others.
Peace!

Disagree. Think about Japan. There are some businesses that will try to shoo you away as a customer if you're not Japanese (the whale meat restaurants, for one).
