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.

Racism is evil.

The artful application of the 'divide and conquer' theory which is successful because it convinces the protagonists to blame each other for perceived crimes - thereby obscuring the actual guilty party or parties.
The people were so busy arguing about racism, they failed to notice they were slaves.

Racism is something that we as people should try to eliminate from the world. There is no difference between a "black" person or a "white" person other than the color of their skin which should not matter. But it does. The color of your eyes, or your skin, or your hair should have to define who you are. It should not alter what you can or cannot do. Racism is unfair. It's cruel and inhumane. I'm sorry this is not a definition but it is true.
