The traditional, pre-PC definition of racism was "the belief that one's particular race is superior to the others", coupled with a willingness to act against others because of dislike of their race. I'm sticking with this definition.

By the "pre-PC" definition, a black manager showing favoritism for fellow blacks would be considered just as racist as a white manager favoring whites, or an Indian manager favoring fellow Indians.

So there are many forms of racism, and black racism is just as bad as white racism.
