Yes actually. Racism by whites toward others in this country is nonexistent by most any degree of measure. Racism of ANY kind by ANYONE is exceptionally limited to may as well be nonexistent. What you call racism is simply not. Its called culture and societal dynamics. Believe me having been overseas I know what racism is, especially the kind employed by the powers that be. You want a really good example go to China or South East Asia or to any country in the Middle East, Kuwait and the UAE whom are supposedly enlightened with plenty of Western comforts should be interesting. To be blunt racism here is mostly a figment of peoples imaginations anymore, its mostly people trying to game the system or make a buck or some perceived slight. If you want the real deal, you need to leave the country. If a real racists showed up most people would be shocked A) B) they wouldn't know what to do. Social dynamics exist the world over, there are always minorities and they are always going to feel they are getting the shaft in someway. Its called life.
I missed the US part. :3oops:
Well, that is the most ignorant statement I have read on this site in quite some time.
It's also completely impossible to prove.
'rac·ism [rey-siz-uhm]
noun
1. a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others.
2. a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination.
3. hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.'

By definition, racism is a belief. It is impossible to know what the belief's of people you do not know is. So to accurately say that racism by whites in America is nonexistent, then you would have to know what EVERY SINGLE 'WHITE' PERSON IN AMERICA THINKS.
And since you cannot and do not know this, then your statement is totally unprovable, ridiculous and should be treated as such.
I know I will.
And don't bother debating me on this... I am not wasting one further second debating such a ludicrous statement as the one you made...life is WAY too short and your mind is clearly WAY too closed.
I pity anyone that feels as you do about this.
Good day.
