No… Racism isn’t tearing the world apart… Reason being, race has nothing to do with what is going on in this world right now. It’s not racism when people disagree with someone’s religion or practices against women. It’s not racist when certain cultures oppress their own kind. It’s called GOOD VS EVIL and that doesn’t have to even be Biblical. There are good people and there is absolute evil. What we have to do is stand our ground for the good.
Some people say that it’s racist when someone may put down their music, or put down their sexual orientation, or put down their beliefs. Don’t undermine what a culture had to strive for in order to be free. Last time I looked the people truly affected by racism had to sweat blood, died just because of their skin colour, were ridiculed, beaten, whipped, and tortured physically and mentally.
I think Bigotry is more what is affecting the world right now. Bigotry is the profound intolerance of any differing creed, belief, or opinion. Don’t forget millions of people died because of this also.
Just remember, when anyone from any race that says this is what my race has accomplished. THAT is racism. Racism is when you believe that any group of people is subhuman.

it is not just racism, but a profound lack of understanding and tolerance towards those who are different, i believe that religion is more commonly the cause of tensions between cultures rather than just the race itself
