Incorrect. Racism is an innate human problem. Every group will have a self preference without massive work to train themselves otherwise.
There are a lot of minority groups that look down on other minority groups. It's part of human nature.
- door5 8y agoYou're completely ignoring the power relationships involved here. Racism isn't just being selfish or rude towards people of another race, it's an entire political system that props up a certain group of people over another, and it pervades every aspect of our lives. Very very few white people believe, for example, "white people should have more wealth than other groups and that is good", yet they implicitly support a political and economic system that creates that outcome. They deny that whiteness is even a factor in their success or their politics, or they even incorrectly believe that white people are the ones that are worse off.
