Racism is specifically the thought or act of believing that you are superior to other people because of the color of your skin. I do not believe that to be genetic.



If that is the definition there isn't much racism in the world.

The definition of "racism" I was taught is that "racism" is the belief that your race is superior to all the other races.

Nowadays, "racism" appears to mean not liking someone who happens to be another race.

Therefore, when someone of another race who I don't like calls me a racist I just tell them, "I don't dislike everyone of your race. I just don't like you."

That usually shuts them up.
