Racism does still exist. People aren't perfect and they have biases. Some are just haters. It actually matters what race you are. People need to appreciate and celebrate that, and not claim that they don't see it. Your race is part of your identity.

some of us that are "smart" enough to make decisions like these have trouble looking at the bigger picture, for an example of a small piece of this bigger picture, some human beings are unable to look at other people as individuals, instead of who they might be in relationship to them, or something they have heard and believed, or like when someone will make an assumption about someone they haven't even met yet.

I find the use of the term colored in describing people as racist. Mind you describing anyone by their colour I find to be racist.

More prevalent than that is the issue of sexism. Women of all races still haven't been given equal rights. Watch The Whistleblower if you have no clue what I'm talking about.

Well, you don't know anything about God and Jesus. God put everyone (all the races) here together. So He sees all as equal, then. Jesus never taught hate. Atheists try to erase the existance of God, which means they kind of act like racists: in denial and try to erase people and believe only in self and their own world (racists) or God and believe only in self (atheists). Racists hate other races, denying love. Atheists hate God, denying the truth. Don't put it on religion. Blame hatred on people. Hateful things only come into place with the actions of people. Religion is love-based. But many people are rooted in hate. And if ever a religion would be based on hate or become that way, that is not the church doing that, that is the minds of people being blasphemous and ruining the love that religion is based on. Blame people.Like (1)

In the US there is one group that enjoys no racial protection under the law and is the most discriminated against - that group is white males

Not yelling, but saying very calmly: that's ludicrous. White males own the majority of wealth, run most of the businesses, banks and utilities, head most of the institutions in the Western world, and ALWAYS have. Even the office of the president only holds so much power, it's not a monarchy. Our first black president has been blocked at every turn by white males in his own government who would rather ruin life for everyone, even their fellow white males, than be led by someone NOT white and male. Those who are thinking white males have lost out, are really just saying they should still have 100% of the pie, no less.That is the ugly truth of it.Like (1)

It's as rampant as ever in many parts of the world, but most of these are also related to cultural differences. It doesn't matter, and deep down we all know that.

It shouldn't. But people want it to, and they'll use any excuse to perpetuate it ("well, those people are racist too, they say these things TOO...") I figure if you're a bigot, OWN it, don't hide behind a bunch of bs. If you truly are not, it won't matter what anyone ELSE may be doing. That's why in spite of MY experiences, I NEVER start off assuming someone's a racist---they have to prove it to me.

It still exists because we live in a diverse world and certain people believe that the color of their skin makes them more superior. As long as this world is diverse, racism will never end, but we are dawning on a new age. The day has already arrived when the color of my skin isn't all that defines me. Where I am the only black girl at an event and I don't feel self-conscious, where even whites watch Madea, where the closest thing this country has to a queen is a black woman, Oprah, where people don't tell me I talk white because they understand that by making that statement they're advertising their ignorance. They now understand that with the rising rate of black literacy, the chances that blacks no longer speak in Ebonics, are huge. They understand that accent has more to do with environment than race. An age where the world cup is held in Africa, and the most powerful nation on the planet is ruled by a black. An age where there are interracial couples all over television and no one bats an eyelid, where Miss Universe is a black, African, where the sexiest woman in the world, Beyonce, is black-read people magazine's sexiest people issue. The age of interracial bromances, and justice for racial inequality. Yes, there is still racism and racial discrimination, but we have come a long way. Just think, less than 70 years ago Mr and Mrs Loving couldn't get married without permission. To those that are against racial integration, I say: " Brace yourselves because this is just the beginning." The more civilized civilization becomes, the more acceptable racial integration will be.
