There's a difference between prejudice and racism

All people suffer from prejudices. Racism, though, is only experienced by races that were viewed as inferior to majority races. Since whites have always been the majority race it's not
possible for someone to be racist towards them, but racism against Blacks, Asians, Hispanic (minority groups, in America at least), is possible.
