Racists can be separated into two groups. There is one group show their racism extremely like Ku Klux Klan, and another group has prejudices against a race but not that show their racism overly. Ku Klux Klan is a group of the first white supremacy and they did not accept that African-Americans have same rights with them. They did not have many activities during the period of Barack Obama but they start aggressive activities after Donald Trump elected for next president in America.

Racists think people that have different skin colors, are wrong and different with them. In the past, white people had black slaves and they did not treat slaves as a human. Therefore, Caucasians did not give any rights to African-Americans and for a while, they did not admit that everyone is equal. Even though descendants of African-Americans or immigrants are now respectable Americans, non-Caucasians still cannot have fair treatments as Caucasians have. For example, --Americans is hired at last when economic boom occurred but during a deep recession, they get fired at first. Also, even if African-Americans are in the same position with white people in a company, they get fewer salaries.

Non-Caucasians live their lives with lots of prejudices as ever. For solving racial problems, people need more education and knowledge of the race. Racism cannot be solved in a short time. Many people already have wronged ideology and prejudices of a race so changing their thoughts will take a lot of time. Also, the society needs to give people a more good quality of educations of the race since childhood. Children could have a right concept of race and could find their own way to finish racial discriminations. Then people could understand and consider each other better than
