Obviously I believe everyone she be judged on their own moral values and their execution of character, but it's always something to think about.

prejudice is not the same as racism. racism is systemic. for you, living in a white dominant society and a white dominant country, with no ancestors who have ever been legally enslaved and traded like cattle in the last thousand years, no one can be racist against you. You are the top of the totem pole. no part of "the system" leans against you, in fact the system is built to help you as much as possible at the expense of people of other skin colors
