well, if odoso meant "racism in-toto" then, yes, that is an error. racial bigotry is alive and well everywhere I have lived or visited, from all groups and against all groups.

however, if odoso meant "tolerated, legal, institutionalized racism" then... there is some merit in that position.

I think people try to use the words racism, discrimmination and prejudice interchangeably. There are all really different things. As I said before :
Racism it hating someone due to their race.
Prejudice is pre-judging someone you don't know ( we all do that)
Discrimmination is making a difference in treament of others on a basis othe than indiviual merit.
