CMV: Racism Cannot Ever Fully be Eradicated as Long as Individual Races Have Unique Cultures

As we continue to address the issue of racism, one of the biggest issues I have found among these attempts is the unwillingness to acknowledge the cultural differences among that exist between races living in the the same nation.  

Now, I do not intend this to be a critique of the specific cultural norms that exist among race, nor do I mean to address the outside contributing factors that have molded these cultures in the first place.  However, it is foolish to not realize that there are marked cultural differences between white, black, Asian, Hispanic and other racial/ethnic groups, particularly in the US.  

I see so many posts on Reddit that boil down to “imagine hating another person because of the color of their skin”.  And while that is a valid criticism of the insanity of racism, in my experience racial prejudice has very little to do with skin color, and much more to do with perceived cultural practices of different races.  Now, these perceptions of what X races “culture” actually are may be based on a false premise or innate prejudice, but that doesn’t stop them from existing.  And they will continue to exist as long as ethnic and racial communities congregate and share cultural practices specific to them.

What is the solution for this?  To be honest I don’t really know.  When taking into account what we know about disparities in healthcare, business, and other industries, people receive better outcomes on nearly all fronts when interacting with someone who looks like them (e.g the same race).  This is why the message of diversity in all areas is championed to the degree it is today.  Representation is key to bettering the lives of the most people as possible, and I think that is a great goal.  However, as long as we continue to see these differences in outcome based on racial interactions between the provider of a service and the customer, then we can presume racial divides are alive and well. 

So CMV guys!  Can’t wait to hear it.

Prejudice will never be eliminated. It's human nature. What matters is that we work to reduce it within ourselves and society at large.

One issue with criticism of culture is you have to be careful to not use it as a proxy for race. Can you see where that might happen in your examples above?
