a common view distinguishes prejudice from racism, holding that racism is best understood as 'prejudice plus power'


Well I love Wikipedia and its sourcing as much as anyone, but "a common view" isn't exactly authoritative, and that definition is bullshite. For instance, Louis Farrakhan purports to believe that all whites are born with a nature that is inherently greedier, more deceptive, and more devious than any other race of man. If he truly ascribes those traits to every white man, woman, and child simply because of their genetic ancestry, he is a racist. And he doesn't have power over anyone who's white.
