"This is a racist country," she said in the Guardian newspaper. "There is almost no inter-penetration of English and Indian cultures in Britain."

But, but, I thought only white conservatives Americans where racists, and that our betters in greater Europe where better than that.

Actually everyone is a racist. The only thing that changes is how we distinguish "them" vs. "us".

To me, most of the EUrinals are definitely "them".

1) This is NOT a racist country, not by the standards of 95% of the worlds countries. Liberal assert this all the time, but saying it often and loudly does NOT make it true.

2) If there is no interpenetration of English and Indian culture in Britain, that is a matter of choice of both English AND indians, not so? Besides, I disagree. I think there is an increasing amount of "interpenetration", especially amongst the young.

Do some Indian parents cause an outrage if their children date/engage Pakistanis? Or is racism only something found in the white Western world?

I disagree. Everyone is prejudiced to some degree or another, but very few are truly racist. There is a difference.
