This is directly copied from Merriam Webster: [Definition of RACISM 1: a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race. 2: racial prejudice or discrimination.] Racial prejudice or discrimination is definition #2 of racism. So how am I misinformed about racism and discrimination being interchangeable terms? Don't be a coward and answer this privately. I want your followers to see too.

The dictionary, written by a White man a hundred years ago, is not the complete definition of racism. Racism = prejudice + power.

Discrimination and racism are not interchangeable.

You should take a sociology class or get some books about social science. Good luck.
