Racism is most likely not going to come in the pre 1970s form of lynch mobs, racial slurs, mistreatment by lack of service etc.

Stop and realize what you just said. 1970 was NOT that long ago. Hell, my parents were born in '61. The culture shift in a scant 3-4 decades is fricking STAGGERING by any metric. Nigh unprecedented in world history. That cannot be understated.

Real racism today comes in forms that are alot more subtle. Being stopped on the street when you didn't do anything suspicious

You do realize that this happens to whites, too, correct? The vast majority of the time when it happens to minorities, it's because other idiot minorities committed some crime. What, are we supposed to just tell LEOs not to stop someone that matches a description because someone might get mad? That's unrealistic, and not a good example of racism. Certainly not worthy of any sort of comparison to pre or even immediate post-civil rights era.

This happens to white people all the time. It's probably far more dependent on how you're dressed and how you're acting.

You just never hear about white people being stopped on the street.
