I think that everyone has a little racism in them...in terms of pride for their own race and what not...but i hate people who have downright discrimation against other races
IMO, a racist is a person who acts on his or her prejudicial beliefs. All people form generalizations about groups of people, but not everyone acts on them. I try to treat people as individuals. I am sure I fail at times.
DOMINATIVE
-stereotypical bigot (less than 5% of the US population)
-identity organized around hatred
-their bigotry makes them feel good about themselves
AMBIVALENT
-honestly believes he/she is NOT racist
-aware of history/events
-look for characteristics of victim to justify discrimination against him/her
-ambivalent attitude towards outgroup
-"they bring it upon themselves"
-act in exaggerated favorable way towards people who disprove their stereotypes
-act in exaggerated unfavorable way towards people who confirm their stereotypes
AVERSIVE
-very little experience in multicultural settings
-may do something by mistake and offend people
-withdraw, back off in fear others will think they aren't "good people"
NON-PREJUDICED
