In this era of diversity, individualism is lost. Diversity is a gift, but it has been misused as a disguise to promote racism. The idea of racism is touchy, worth constructing a picture of what it really means.
Most people define racism as one race being considered inferior to another.
That is too elementary. Racism is the notion that a person is defined by their race, that they are not an individual but a product of an entire group. Racism, then, is the opposite of individualism. White, black or red, small, medium or large, you are not respected for who you are. You are respected only for the group in which you happen to have been placed.
