The word Racist is generally used to discribe something or someone.

In the case of an object (something not someone) the word is used to describe an object that is insensitive towards any specific group of ethnic origin and/or incorrectly representing said group (aka cultural appropriation, or using insensitive sterotypes).

In the case of an individual it is used to describe their actions and/or words being discrimatory, degrading, and/or targeting any specific group of ethnic origin.

However in terms of people there are 2 kinds of racist.

First being intentional with the knowledge that what they're saying is hurtful, degrading, and/or discriminatory towards any particular group of ethnic origin.

Second being unintentional due to either a lack of exposure to different cultures, and/or ignorance due to a poor education or a lack thereof (but if they continue to repeat whatever it is they said or did after being corrected they turn into the first kind).
