Examples of racism:

When I was walking through a neighborhood in Boston to go to school, people were yelling to get out of their neighborhood, that I didn't belong there. They were black and I am white. That is racism.

Saying aloud that an employer should have a racially balanced workforce.

More about racism:

1. Racism is expressing the belief that race should be a factor in decisions outside the home and family. Decisions about hiring ARE non-personal decisions.

2. Race is unrelated to work performance, so employers are prohibited by federal and state law from ever giving race any weight in hiring. Doing so would be not only racist, but illegal (most racist conduct and expression is NOT illegal).

3. Conduct which meets the definition in item 1 IS racism, no matter who does it and no matter the popularity of the conduct.

Racism comes in many forms: it can be both covert and overt.

If someone calls another a racial slur, that would be considered verbalized overt racism.

If someone does all they can to block out people of a certain race from certain groups, organizations, schools, and so on, but all with excuses on why they aren't accepted, that can be considered covert racism.

There really is no "one suits all" answer, but for the most part racism is defined by any contempt towards someone because of their race.
