I suggest you look into what "racism" is.

Calling someone the color of their skin is not racist. Treating people differently based on the color of their skin is.

Classifying a person by their heritage or skin color may not fit the technical definition of racism, but that doesn't mean it's not racist.

But, no one really wants to be called white or black or be identified by their race.

:confused:

I'm perfectly fine being called white...because I'm white. And I know many black people that are perfectly fine being called black...because they're black.

People are taught to enjoy judging themselves and others by their race.

In a perfect world, we'd be judged by our character only.

Once again, saying the color of somebody's skin or that somebody is of a certain race is NOT judging them.

Judging people by the color of their skin is wrong. Saying the color of their skin is not judging them.

But, people shouldn't care about the color of someone's skin or about someone's race.

African American and Caucasian are describing racial heritage though. AND, in your perfect world, it would be ok to call gays gays, or people fags or whatever, if it describes them. You have a bad idea of perfection. In a perfect world, nobody would care about this
