I think everybody has a little racism in them. Its how society has made them. And those who say they are 100% not racist is lying. Not on purpose though they may think they are not and for the most part try not to be.
But when you laugh at a comedian making a joke about a race even if its your own race, thats racism. Every time you get a little scared when your around a large number of the opposite race your a little raciest. When ever you hear a stereotype and remember someone like that your a little raciest. When ever you hear people of your own race saying things about another race and you say nothing, not that you believe it but you don't want to stand out, thats a little raciest. I could go on and on, but I think you get my point.
We ALL have a little racism inside us. Its not the way God has made us but the way society has made us. But feeling a little raciest and acting upon it is two different things.
We can change the way society brings up the next generation though. But I doubt this will happen as racism is still strong in so many people who don't want that change.

I come from a long line of deep south racists. Some of the examples I have had include the most crass bigoted individuals you'd never hope to meet.
I once followed their lead and was racist right along with them. Then I got a little older and realized that some of those being persecuted were actually much kinder to me than those aforementioned racist family members who would set an example for me to follow.
Upon this epiphany I put down my preconceived notions of what a person is in appearance and allowed them to show me who they are themselves. This, opposed to having others do my thinking for me, has made a very significant difference in the person I am now compared to the person I was then.

I am a racist toward blacks, mostly because of what I witnessed here in New Orleans during the week following Katrina. I had some racist feelings before that, but now I am definately prejudiced.

A Gurdwara is a Sikh position of worship. Who in the international might want to favor to attack Sikhs? by gum, they're many times deadly in case you disillusioned them (Singh=Lion) yet, in my adventure, they're non secular, functional, well mannered and their eating places serve impressive nutrients. This attack isn't BNP proper, for a commence. All Sikhs that i recognize in England are very unswerving to the united kingdom and does not entice the interest of any English human being, except for nutters. i will not see anybody contained in the BNP having a flow at Sikhs - there is really no reason behind them to take action. as far as i recognize, Hindus do not typically have a gripe about Sikhism contained in the united kingdom, Muslims similiter. Christians can get their knickers in a twist about something from condoms to curry powder, yet, IRA excepted, they don't use violence. i'm sorry your Temple has been desecrated. appears like nutters have done it.

Being racist has nothing to do with guts, in fact it has to do with the lack there of.

First define racism, Do you mean negative stereotyping based on race alone? Do you mean Affirmative Action? Do you mean any kind of application that requests that you check off your race? Do you mean the anti-white jokes that are heard on TV and in the movies? Do you mean the prohibition of anti-black jokes on TV or in the movies? Do you mean people who specifically support public figures like Condy, and Obama because they are black? What do you mean?
