Signs in the United States in 1957 saying "Race Mixing is Communism"

Racism is, by its most basic definition, the view that a perceived race has particular traits of inferiority in comparison to another race. Racism can also include the simple prejudice or discrimination against other ethnic or races. It is a core component of both colonialism and fascism. Capitalism uses racism and mysticism to defend itself because there is no rational way to defend inequality and exploitation.[1]
