Prejudice is learned. Racism is purposefully built into a system over time. Prejudice is annoying and sometimes dangerous depending on how people act on it. But, racism is a widely destructive force that is impossible to get out of the system without overhauling everything. A lot of people wouldn't like the results of that overhaul though.
