Only white people can be racist, at least according to the Seattle public school system. Here's how they define racism:

 

The systematic subordination of members of targeted racial groups who have relatively little social power in the United States (Blacks, Latino/as, Native Americans, and Asians), by the members of the agent racial group who have relatively more social power (Whites).

 

By this definition, if a white person were murdered simply for being white, it could not be considered a racist act.

funny you should mention this...

 

there was a guy who was interviewed on CNN a few nights ago.. he was from a Masonic group, and he said the same thing. I don't necessarily agree with this.. but I can see their reasoning. To me... racism is racism is racism. Its hate against a race.... last time I checked... caucasians were a race.
