Racism, what is it? Racism is discrimination against someone because they are different. I believe that it is absolutely inadmissible to be racist to somebody. Why do I think that would be objectionable? I will answer that in a concise manner, what would Jesus do? In John 4:4-42, Jesus talked with a Samaritan woman and requested her to give him a drink.

So if a person in America thinks that racism means to call someone the N word, a person from Europe may think it would be someone not letting other people live in their country. Both cases would be an appropriate example, but it does change with what situation people are in, or what they have been taught what racism
