Racism Defined

But, in fact we know that one’s race does not determine human traits, personality traits or intellectual ability.  It’s main purpose it seems  is to divide and overpower the less dominant race.  It separates the haves and the have nots.   It categories, it labels but mostly, it dehumanizes groups of people.
