What is racism? What is racism to you?

- Racism is what it is. It is the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, esp. so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races.

- what racism means to me is when someone doesnt like a particular race. I feel like when a person is racist they are uneduacated. I think this because they obviously don't know much about that race if they think that they are un equal. Everyone is equal no matter the race. I feel like racism is also one of the things the have GREATLY effected the human race because it effects peoples relationships and the right to be happy. The whole thing of being racist led to slavery because white people felt that they were better than every other race, especially African-Americans. I feel that as much as people try racism will always be here because everyone is different and has their one opinion. If they feel a certain way, their going to feel that way no matter what.
