What can one do to minimize racism?
First of all I see the wrong definition of racism. This is why racism continues. Because it is not defined correctly. Racism is group based, it is the competition for the wealth and the resources on earth and as a group acquires enough wealth and power they use that power to injure and hurt another group.
Racism is not necessarily hate, people participate in racist practices through micro-insults, micro-aggression and micro-assaults everyday and don't know they are doing it. They don't hate they are naive to such things because certain things in American society have been normalized.
People are prejudice about a lot of things. I like bow ties over ties but I won't lynch anybody or injure anybody to have them. It's just my prejudice about the ties I like.
Racism is fear based. People who knowingly participate in racism carry a xenophobia and are afraid of people that don't look like them.
In 1860 right before the civil war whites owned 99.75% of the wealth, in 2009 whites on 99.75% of the wealth in America. Whites own all the power in America, that is why the remaining Africans from slavery cannot be racist because they don't own anything to injure and hurt another group. You can find those remaining Africans being prejudice but they can't practice racism because they have no power in America.
The way you decrease racism is those groups who have been deprived or injured in society have become self reliant.

Why do Caucasians feel they are the superior race?
Most don't. What a number typically feel is that they have better beliefs, culture, values and way of life.

What is the term for a person who is prejudiced against a religion other than Judaism called?
The only religion with an established term for discrimination against that religious group is the Jews with Anti-Semitism or Judenhass. There is no specific term that seems to cover hatred of any specific religious affiliation in the same way that "racist" covers hatred of any specific race. (For example, a Black person could be racist against East Asians or an Indian could be racist against Native Americans.)
Some people have proposed the term "religist", but it has not really caught on, especially since a number of people use this term for an adherent of religion rather than a person who hates others on account of their religious affiliation.. Other lengthier terms that are sometimes used are "Anti-Religious Bigot" (e.g. Anti-Christian Bigot, Anti-Muslim Bigot, etc.), "Religionophobe" (e.g. Christianophobe, Islamophobe, etc.), "Discriminatory Against Religion", and improper uses of the term "racist". Of course, a term like "intolerant", "discriminatory", "vile", or "exclusivist" can be used, but these do not clearly indicate that the animus derives from the target's religious affiliation (as opposed to skin color, political manifestations, or sexual orientation).

No. Gay people are not a race. Prejudice against gay people is called homophobia.
No, there is a such thing as racism and it plays a significant negative part in everyone's lives.
However, sometimes, it is blown out of proportion in such a way (this is usually by media) that helps spread ignorance of it even more where either everyone believe it doesn't exist and people are just whining, or people believe it is the only thing one country or another is worried about when that isn't so.

How were police used in Victorian England?
You're British police man round the time of Jack the ripper would of worn a white buttoned grand-dad shirt underneath, black trousers, with braces and belt. Polished black boots.

Why is racism such a touchy subject?
Because there are many who'd rather pretend it doesn't exist any longer. To say racism is still around and greatly affecting the lives of many says that there are still racists around greatly affecting the lives of many and no one (with a few exceptions) wants to say they are racist. However, to deny that racism is around when many can give proof that it is still thriving is in itself somewhat racist, so they are, in fact, achieving the opposite of what they think they will achieve; getting rid of racism by ignoring it. Also, many would rather enjoy the comfortable life they have without being bothered with someone elses problem. If it isn't affecting you, you are less likely to care about it or act on it. This is something that many human beings live by.
Does racist still exist and what is reverse racism?
Note: A person of ANY race can be a Racist, not just Caucasians.
Let me answer the second question first: The term 'Reverse Racism" is meant to outline Blacks being racist towards Caucasians. When in truth that is not what that statement would mean. Reverse racism would indicate someone having excessive Love for someone for their ethnicity.
On to the first question: Does Racism still exist? Yes, very much so. Every time you here someone use a derogatory slander towards someone based on nothing more than their skin color, that is Racism.
