I can't really imagine how I could be convicted for thoughts or beliefs - only actions are punishable AFAIK. Or not? Numerous laws will look at an action and your thoughts to decide what crime you were convicted of (e.g. murder vs manslaughter, theft, intent to commit $CRIME, etc.) You have to pick one, so how can you prove your decision was not racist? Cripes, simple examples like that aren't what anti-racism laws are for. It's when 10 black people turn up and the landlord tells them the apartment is gone, but it isn't.
