Slavery is not racism, although it is evil enough. At least, there are
many places around the world, developed very well, where there is no
slavery, but plenty of racism. And I don't think being not racist is
just calling black people "American of African decent" instead of
"negro". Your message smells bad, even from here, and gives the feeling
of where the racism really hiding in is, and it's a brilliant example of
what the real problem is today. Maybe your government made some very
nice improvements about the subject, but I'm sure changing people's
minds, are a little bit different thing.
