What is it with this thing called racism? Will it stop? When are people going to get educated and start acknowledging that we are all humans?

    1. "Racism" is basically disliking or not trusting other people because of their race.

    However, another definition of racism is "you dislike A because you are part of the privileged B, so you continue discrimination against A."

    By that sense, hatred from B against A (or by anyone else other than dominant races) is seen by that definition as only "prejudice" and "bigotry", which is not backed by social discrimination. In this definition of "racism", B is "racist" and not A, because B and their group are dominant in society, which has discriminated against A for a long time. So in this definition of "racism" it is:

    "Prejudice + Power = Racism"

    2. Not really. Everyone, even the kindest people, have some people whom they will not or never trust for some reason, so racism will never end until everyone could trust each other regardless, which would be impossible.

    3. It will never be possible, because we humans do not always trust each other. Even in a world government where people are forced to be educated to treat people with decency, or in a world where everyone respects each other and their boundaries, there will always be people who will be suspicious of others.

    Source(s) : Part 1 for my answer is from surfing at anti-racist websites. The rest is my own opinion.

    It's a tool.

    Everybody knows we're all humans.

    Of course it isn't going to "stop."

    It is based on negative emotions and no one invented racism

    Some bs blacks made up. It'll stop when blacks are exterminated.

    Ask the Europeans. They invented the concept.
