What Exactly is Racism?

I could be wrong, but I was always taught that when you made a decision about someone based on their race, that was racism... According to Wikipedia (always correct BTW) "Racism is the belief that inherent different traits in human racial groups justify discrimination." Furthermore "the wiki" quotes the United Nations as saying this about racial discrimination ,

"the term "racial discrimination" shall mean any distinction, exclusion, restriction, or preference based on race, colour, descent, or national or ethnic origin that has the purpose or effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal footing, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life.^[14]"(Emphasis added)

A very important distinction to point out is that none of these say that racism is ONLY "white people hating black people". This distinction is so important because the court of political correctness and mainstream media would have you believe that racism only goes in one direction.

Racism is disgusting, but it is time that people acknowledge that it is evident ANY TIME a decision is made based on race, because I think the political left in general doesn't understand that. Check out this video (of audio) and let me know who is making a decision based upon race....

Howard Stern may be nothing more than a "shock-jock", but he appears to have missed the "pro left-wing" memo that lives with Bill Mahr and Michael Moore...
