[Peace-discuss] Anti-racism

[C. G. Estabrook]

[Racism refers to legal structures that penalize groups defined by descent. 
Racial prejudice refers to censorious attitudes towards groups defined by 
descent.  Both are present in Israel. Racism, but not racial prejudice, is now 
largely absent in the US (altho' some, like native Americans, may justly not 
think so).  --CGE]
