racism

racism
n 1: the prejudice that members of one race are intrinsically
superior to members of other races
2: discriminatory or abusive behavior towards members of
another race [syn: {racialism}, {racial discrimination}]

racist

racist
adj 1: based on racial intolerance; "racist remarks"
2: discriminatory especially on the basis of race or religion
[syn: {antiblack}, {anti-Semitic}, {anti-Semite(a)}]
n : a person with a prejudiced belief that one race is superior
to others [syn: {racialist}]

I don't see how my statement fits either one of these definitions..
