That's a strong blanket statement. Remember, racism is an extreme
expression of superiority of one particular race over another.
I would guess most people wherever they may be don't fall
into that category. It's more like people choose to associate
with whom they are most comfortable and that they share
some sense of commonality with. Thats quite different from a dislike
based on race.
sorry to butt in, but i think some here need to open their eyes
every once in a while.

I'm racist, guess what; so are you. If you're not racist then you're a
liar. Everyone has some racial prejudices in them, but most intelligent
people are able to identify these and not let insignificant feelings
cloud their judgements about another human being.
It should be noted that Europeans and North American's use different
brands of racism, steeped in different contexts and refined in unique
experiences. We both look at eachother and see racism, and it's true,
but smart people can overcome this, so smarten up you fuckwits.
