Agreed. Racism is a topic that all people can relate with. People know that they are most comfortable when they are around their own kind. They are also proud when they accept others. Can we agree on those two things?

If we can agree then perhaps racism is not the core issue. The core issue might be acceptance. If I had to choose between racism that is discussed openly and racism that is secretive, I would choose openness.

If we also agree on openness then we can explore easier problems to solve.

I dunno. Just thinking out loud.
