Racism is the belief that one race is superior in some way to another. In reality there is no such thing as 'race'. It's all nonsense based on a few physical features. Buying stereotypes out of ignorance (of a QB's ability for example) is a perfect example of racism.
It doesn't require hate of any kind actually. That's bigotry.
It drives me crazy how people, especially the media, constantly misuse these words.
