Somehow it always seems like the caucasian ypes are the one who are most racist.

Well the very origin of the word 'Caucasian' is racist. Back in the 18th century, a 'scientist' (a German, I believe) formulated a theory that the range of human races found in the world was a result of the biblical fall from grace. He postulated that the color of an individual's skin was indicative of how far his race had fallen from grace -- in other words, the darker your skin the more corrupt you were and the lighter your skin the closer to God and the original Eden you were. Well, this scientist thought that the people of the caucuses were the most beautiful people in the world (read 'beautiful' as 'whitest') and thus coined the word 'Caucasian' to describe those people most closely resembling the first man and woman and who were closest to a state of purity. So perhaps Caucasian racism shouldn't be too surprising.


Huh?
Isn't the reason why the white race is called "Caucasian" is because they found bones near the Caucasus mountains that relate to many of the European ethnic groups??? confused At least that's what I learned and remembered in geography and World History class.

After many years of thinking about this, I have finally come to the conclusion that people have a problem with other people different from themselves.

Racism, taken to the extreme, is scary, horrible, and very deep-seated. Ultimately, I think racism is the ignorance of the fear of the "other." If you think about it, once people become friends, any physical differences just drop away.

Sometimes it is hard in the U.S. to escape from racism. It is one of the biggest problems in the world. Yet, hardly anyone talks about it.

"Race" is used to describe the different breeds of people.
