"That has absolutely nothing to do with whether the country or parts of the country is or is not racist...." The country is a legal entity based on laws, the laws of which have moved decidedly to the anti-racism category. This has effected the culture of people to the point where integration of races is so thorough that we would be hard pressed to find urban communities that are not diverse. "You can't deny that large sections of the country remain racist.. I would not deny that racism and bigotry are alive and well. Some people decided it was the white man's turn to receive that treatment a couple of decades ago, and he has. But you partisan bigots are the worst I can think of at the moment. "...
