it defines someone who thinks his race is "superior" to another.... Definition from dictionary.com –noun 1. a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others. 2. a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination. 3. hatred or intolerance of another race or other races. I would also note that a lot of tejek's rhetoric suggests that ONE race or another is SUPERIOR to others. I don't know if he is black, white, or what. If you constantly mention that someone is "black", then apparently, you believe that is a relevant factor in every discussion. This implies the belief that race makes a difference in every consideration. Tejek is a racist by most definitions. But I accept your claim that he is a bigot, as well.
