When you look at a brochure and the only people in it are one race. (This is not always racist, though. In certain places only one race of people might live there, so it would make sense.) When storeowners or mall cops follow a person of a certain color around, because they think that person might steal. Thinking certain people all look the same, think the same, or have a conspiracy against all you love and hold dear. Unconsciously or actively disliking or holding a grudge against someone because they live in an area 'where they don't belong'. Thinking that your way must be the best way, always, and foreigner should take after you/your country's example.

A westerner assuming that chopsticks are a strange or even silly way to eat.
