Racism not only comes from people of other races, but it also comes from one's own race. Racism from one's own race is referred to as interracism.

By debating racism openly we may be able to find the source, and expose it. Racism is based on fear and ignorance. By exposing the roots of racism, it will be much harder NOT to see the ignorance in this hatred. The roots of racism run deep into this country's history. Racism is a fact of life for many people. We want to do what's right, we want this world to be a better place, but can we change what we do not acknowledge?
