A Time to Kill dealt with hate and racism
Ms. Ever's Boys-also dealt with racism, and is based on a true incident, where young African American men were subjected to clinical trials and infected with STD's.
The Tuskegee Airmen is a great historical movie, reflecting the racism that was rampant in America during WW11, and how these men showed that a person's race has no indication as to what they can accomplish.
Mississippi Burning is another great movie dealing with racism, hatred.
Driving Miss Daisy shows how two people overcame the sterotypical white supremacy/colored laborer-however one that was not mentioned but shows all the aspects of your question, was the ABC miniseries-North and South 1&2 which dealt with the Civil War era. In North and South Book 2, the plantation owner's daughter Brett (Genie Francis) and the name escapes me, but the part was played by Erica Gimple (Fame) are working their way back to South Carolina, and the roles of mistress and slave become melded to one of love and friendship-it remains one of my favorite movies and the series is out on DVD in a box set.

Oh, you mean historical movies?
Face it, all throughout history, racism has been the main factor in every walk of life. In Jesus' time, the Romans murdered so many Jews because of their race. In cave man's time they killed each other just because they weren't part of their own race. In Africa they killed and murdered their own people and sold them into slavery (and they are still doing it today). Most of the wars today is due to religion and that boils down to a racial thing.
Show me one time in the whole history of the earth when race wasn't a factor in wars or fighting. Movies today are just showing a bit of what has happened in history.
Oh yea, and when we finally have visitors from other worlds, racism it going to flourish once again.
Hate it as much as you can (I don't blame you cause racism sucks) but you can't do anything about it and it's suicide to try and that would be a death for no reason.

teh most memorable movie about hate crimes has to be A Time to Kill about a dad accused of murder for shooting the people who raped his daughter
I though the movie was very moving and when the lawyers were giving the closing statements as the defence lawyer asked teh jury to imagine in there own head what happened when the girl was raped as if it was there own daughter adn ended his statement with now imagine she was black which made teh jury sympothise with the kids dad adn find him not guilty
