Wow! There has been a lot of activity on this thread. Thanks to everyone who tried to answer my question. I was hoping to get some suggestions from neicy as well regarding possible solutions. BTW, I find it easier to quote and reply after the quoted part.
I don't think that anyone here denied that racism exists when attempting to define the term. I'm relieved that people know that there is a problem. The question is how to combat it or make it socially unacceptable. Laws such as the Civil Rights Acts have attempted to eliminate 'institutional' racism, but cannot change personal feelings. An excellent suggestion from Dionysus is to have interaction with a diverse variety of people. I've taken that for granted because my neighborhood is very diverse.
