Actually, regarding racism, I don't think Europe is better, at least generally, that is one of the ways the U.S. is better, although it still has room to grow.

Actually, regarding racism, I don't think Europe is better, at least generally, that is one of the ways the U.S. is better, although it still has room to grow. Of course, the U.S. has other issues (an increasingly violent police force as well as income inequality) which makes the effects that stem from racial discrimination worse than they would elsewhere, although that's just my take.
