hmmmm, Im average american white guy. I think those that consider race/skin complexion when looking for friendship/love/anything are bigoted and closeminded. That doesnt mean Im not a bit racist, I tend to make jokes about any and everything I think is funny, which includes my own origins (jewish american) but I dont let stupid things like that hold me back from making friends with different races or having discussions with them.

I treat new people as if they are innocent and deserving of a chance to prove themselves. I only judge people after I've met them, and even then my views are constantly changing so I dont hold someone to their every word. I dont wish the world was free of racism becuase thats something that will never leave society and would be a wasted wish. As long as humans live we will discriminate based on any feature that is different and associate it with some positive or negative aspect/trait. Humans are cruel bastards and trying to change it is a noble goal, but dont expect to make much progress.
