Human nature is why our race relations are the way they are. Every country in the world has the same issues, only ours are more known because we are a more open and 'accepting' society. Racism will never go away completely.
Saying that is like saying that humans are inherently evil. I don't believe that. And no, other countries do not have the same issues on the same scale that we have. In England I was amazed to see mixed-race family commercials! There was one on t.v. where a black husband kissed his white wife and their mixed kids were sitting at the breakfast table! You DON'T see that here.
You don't have to believe it, but its true. What about serial killers who lead normal lives? We all have our stereotypes about on another and they will never go away. Africa internally is one of the worst at this racism thing, only its called tribalism. Its a huge reason why Africa will never become civlized in the near future.
