Racism is more of an attitude(one race is superior) while discrimination is actions based on that attitude for ex. not letting a latino person apply to a job because you think they are unfit to work there and it's populated by more whites. There's also PREJUDICE which can be mixed up with these two which is the belief...for example...all asians are bad drivers or all blacks live in the ghetto!! BUT IM GLAD YOURE ASKING TO KNOW MORE ABOUT Different things...this is a start...if everyone started asking more questions and listening...then the world wouldn't be such a bad place!!

My humble opinion is that racism is the feeling and discrimination would be the action taken in response to that emotion.
