racism starts with the pseudo scientific definition of humans according to races followed by a belief that some races are superior to others.
and so any discrimination on the basis of a person's race is racism.
it's a big thing in politics because racist leaders (to take hitler as an extreme example) can unite a large part of their popolation by using their fear and hate towards members of another race.
it sux but its used by politicians ... and has been used by politicians since the invention of politics.

Racism starts with the the belief that people with similarly colored skin or religion or ethnicity have the same genetic heritage so it can be used to put people into groups. The next assumption is that genetic heritage is an important factor in the differences between peoples accomplishments and behavior. The final element is looking for differences in the behavior or accomplishments by the groups you have created and to judge individuals based on your categorization.
Politician use peoples perceptions of groups to manipulate voters to support/oppose polices based on emotions instead of reason.

The true meaning is a belief that one race is superior in all ways strictly based on race alone.
But off course to a lot of people, in today's politically correct society, it just means having a different opinion on an issue or belief than someone of a different race.
A lot of people might define racism as ill treating someone. But that, of course, is ridiculous. Just because someone ill treats someone else does not equate to racism.
Someone else may define racism as being a winner.
How foolish is that?
If one team consistently defeats another team does not make them racist.
They are just better prepared.

sure that is... What amazes me is that all and sundry mentions the KKK, yet no one has stated the Black Panthers. i'm not a prejudice guy in any respect, yet i'm initiating to benefit the thank you to be so lots extra protective. Why? with the aid of fact I even have had extra then my proportion of predjudice directed to me! the colleges my teenagers are in are turning majority black, that's fantastic, different than they make no bones approximately thier prejudices. They enable you realize outright they hate whites. they want us to get faraway from thier colleges. The mayor of recent orleans made a remark not lengthy in the past and that i did not pay attention a remark from everybody else approximately it. New Orleans would be united states of america of america's BLACK city. He reviews that the whites are why they had the themes they had, not the actuality that he didnt desire to spend any of his value selection funds on getting human beings out of that city. The leaders of the BLACK movments have made reviews approximately killing whites and that white have no corporation interior thier kind. there is no White leisure television.. in contrast to B.E.T. there's a opposite discrimination happening from the authorities referred to as affirmative action. We take a black guy or woman much less qualified and place them in a place the place they could not be as solid or as qualified as a white/asian or hispanic guy or woman. sure, there is racism, yet extra directed to whites now.

Racism occurs anytime a white person behaves in a manner any black person disagrees with, even when other black people approve of said behavior. An important part of the definition is that black people cannot commit rascist actions no matter how grevious they are.
