    Default Definition of "Racist"

    According to the University of Delaware, this is the definition of racist:

    "A Racist: A racist is one who is both privileged and socialized on the basis of race by a white supremacist (racist) system. The term applies to all white people (i.e. people of European descent) living in the United States regardless of class, gender, religion, culture or sexuality. By this definition, people of color cannot be racists, because as peoples within the U.S. system they do not have the power to back up their prejudices, hostilities or acts of discrimination."

    A racist is someone who discriminates or categorizes people based on race alone.

    Function: noun
    Date: 1933
    1 : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race

    all people can be racist regardless of color. racism is not only something done by white people.

    i know certain individuals that are racist as hell and they happen to be BLACK.


    more people are bigoted than racist BTW. but some people are neither.

    note to self, dont go to delaware, because they are F*CKING RETARDED.

    racism is anything to do with someones race. whether it be a black person thinking that a middle eastern is gonna bomb him or a white person assuming asians are always smart.

    anything that is based on race is racism.

    i think racism is just an advanced form of bigotry. you basically have to be bigoted to be racist but you dont have to be racist to be bigoted




    and for all you intelligent individuals, its not "racise" its "racist"

    This is a definition in terms to a Sociologist or a an Anthropologist.

    Here is a thought to ponder on.

    Define Prejudice
    Define Discrimination
    Define Racism
    Diffrent sources, while staying true to the general meaning, will give you diffrent definitions. It is the dynamic nature of the english language.
