To do so would mean having the strength to own up to the evil in
yourself. That goes for everybody.

I'm not sure the problem of racism can be solve with honesty, much less without honesty. Humans are not well known for logical thinking, and it's logic that will solve the problem of racism. Is it logical that we place so much importance in the color of someone's skin? No, but we do.
Aside from birth defect, bodily injury (or modification) and sex, we are all functionally the same. Yet, something as simple as a different color skin can send some people into fits. it's absurd. Yet, you can't reason with someone like that.
Until we can set aside the concept of "race", racism will always play a disproportionally huge role in the affairs of man. And I don't see mankind discarding the concept anytime soon, in spite of all the genetic evidence that "race" is an illusion. Like travelling in the desert and seeing a "lake" in the horizon -- it looks real, but it's not. Sometimes, believing what you see with your own eyes will lead you away from the truth.

Honesty isn't PC, so yes, necessarily so.
"Racism," (assuming such a thing exists) can only be remedied by voluntary physical and cultural/influential separation of the races.
