I don't think anybody, irregardless of color, is truly without some bit of racism...Racism by Caucasians against non-Caucasians comes from ancient times in almost some kind of supernatural belief that some fairer-skinned humans had 'divine-providence' over people of color. It evolved into slavery, and then 'nationalistic' beliefs that Caucasians were superior over non-whites, later evolving into the ultimate form of nationalism, the 'pure-Aryan' state of Adolf Hitler-having the ultimate form of pre-eminence over 'non-Aryans'. In some parts of pre-second world war Europe, Jews were regarded as 'running' Europe. Fraudulent documents were circulated showing that the Jews wanted to control the world. Mystical anti-Semitic cults evolved, in which Adolf Hitler was a willing pupil. Adolf Hitler knowingly and very willingly associated with some ultra-right wing hardlined Islamists in the beginnings of a fanatical racist zeal to kill the Jews, who at the same time were mostly dark-skinned Arabs.

I don't believe that I am better than anybody else of any other race (being a Caucasian). I have seen many of my own race act in dumb, so-called 'inferior ways'. But it doesn't necessarily mean that I don't have one atom of racism in me. I think, as human beings, irregardless of color, we can either fly to the stars or sink to the bottom of the ocean. It all depends upon our beliefs...and non-beliefs against each other. As well as our ability to interpret that belief structure in a practical, modern way of living together in peace and harmony. My city is Vancouver, BC, Canada-voted the most racially integrated city in the world. There are no racist marches and Klan and neo-Nazi rallies here. We work and live together in the most part with harmony.

The tribal hatreds still exists to some degree in Vancouver, BC, but we learn to not make an issue out of it. This belief doesn't have to follow any political ideology. This doesn't make us superior. It makes us human beings...plain and simple. Racism is just the same old tribal superiority that has haunted us from the past to modern times, irregardless of color, religion or creed. A truly 'race-less' society will come in a number of generations...but for now it can almost be a bit of a 'caste-society', irregardless of who you are and what religion or tribe you adhere to. Some whites seem to think themselves superior over blacks, some Asians think they are superior over whites, etc, in a never-ending vicious cycle.
