> This is the crux of what most white Americans don't get about race in America. The dictionary definition of racism would be the one most people agree with.

Which is itself a racist comment according to the dictionary definition. Engaging in racism in order to stop racism means that you're no better than the racists you oppose. I'm firmly of the belief that the ends don't justify the means. The means help determine the end. To that end, we all should oppose racism. All racism. And not just oppose racism by people we don't like, and support racism by people we like.
