I think you make a good point. A lot of white people just automatically 
consider themselves not "racist" or "prejudiced." Unless you are a Nazi, you 
sits around and thinks about how racist they are? 
However, racism is more than just a conscious belief in white supremacy. 
Racism
is your attitude, how you interact with people, your politics, etc. And I 
think
that's how society has changed from the 60s - then, you could watch racism on 
your tv spelled right out for you in the form of a cop beating protesters. 
Today, the media and everyone else acts like racism is very nearly a thing of 
the past. I think it has gotten more subtle and more institutional, become a 
part of social institutions like the job market, schools, the criminal 
justice 
system.
