Not a real thing; an abstract social construct with no actual basis in reality.
There is only one race : the Human Race

"Those persons of a different race ! I'm voicing an I'll informed, erroneous opinion based on ethnic and cultural differences and call it Racism!"
"Say what you want, but remember it's YOUR words. You have to keep them, because your words are telling me about you, not them. It's not racism, it's being a jerk.

An excuse given by one 'race' of people to abuse another person's rights. Usually created by blind ignorance.
Racist:"All black people lie, steal and cheat- its in their genes."
Actual:"All people lie, steal and cheat- its in their genes."

The belief that the human specie is somehow subdivided into subspecies, usually identified by an undefinable quantity of skin pigment. i.e. racism is any belief that there are such things as human races.
Non-racist: "What's a race?"
Racism: "I am white, black, yellow, green, etc."
Ultra racism:"You are racist"
Racism: "I am white, black, yellow, green, etc."
Ultra racism:"You are racist"

Probably the stupidest excuse for hatred known to man, racism is prejudice towards someone of a different race.
Anyone who hates someone because of their colour, is of course, a fucking dumbass. If you ever took a class on human evolution, you would know that we all started out in Africa, and at one point in time, ALL humans were BLACK. Besides, differences are what make us unique. If we were all the same, the world would be fucking boring.

Racists, homophobes, and anyone else who hates someone solely based on differences, make up the dregs of society, and are the people Hitler SHOULD have put into deathcamps. You can hate someone of a different race, or sexual orientation, but if it's BECAUSE they are different, then you are a fucking moron.
If you want a reason to hate someone, hate them cause they are fucking stupid.
Fuck you KKK, fuck you Hitler, fuck you racism. Fuck.

Prejudice or discrimination based on skin color, origin, and/or religion. A group with institutional power (or more control) is technically benefiting from racism, even if they do not want to be. For instance, white men actually benefit from racism especially in the U.S. and Europe because of the power that heterosexual white men receive. Even if you are a white man (like me) who does not condone or accept it, you are still benefiting from it. Unfortunately, this type of racism is difficult to battle due to unequal population. Some believe that a fair system would be if there is a 15% black population and a 75% white population (these statistics are just made up), then the seat in government should be 15% black and 75%.
It is not based on the perpetrator's intentions, but on the perception of the victims. Someone may joke that he hates green people, but green people may not take this as a joke.
Many liberals see racism as a white-person thing due to their heavy institutional power, while many conservatives think that any prejudice statements are racism (reverse-racism). Not all conservatives are racist and not all liberals are anti-racist.
It is predicted that this generation will break the political parties. These young people see that religion, race, sexuality, gender, identity, origin, etc. do not matter and all people should be treated equal. These youngsters have the power to end racism, sexism, and division.
