Unfortunately, its the idiots you refer to that make the evening news.
I do think racism will always exist in the minds of the uneducated. However, the good news I see in my own grandchildren is that largely they dont even see color. I had lunch with both of them the other day at their school and both classes had a complete mix of ethnicities. So in 30-50 years, I think things will be better, just like things now are better than 50 years ago.

Great story! But no, it won't change....ever.
I am 45. You could have visited my school when I was 10 and you could describe the same thing you witnessed at your grandchildrens school. You see, children don't see color like adults and they have very little life experience to make judgements based on stereotypes. People, by nature, grow more or less prejudiced as they get older based on life experiences. Every adult in the world is prejudiced in many ways while not necessarily being racist. But you will always have the extreme outliers who will become full fledged racists. There is no way to eradicate racism. There will always be a minority of every race that is racist. Other than by divine intervention, they will always be tormented by the evil that fights to overtake the good in humanity.
