One of the real eye opening moments for me, eons ago, was with a guy I played arenas in WoW with. Manipulator on Darkspear, if by chance, you're out there. Anyways, he was a kiwi, and he explained to me, one night amidst our gaming, how interesting it was that Americans assumed they had the monopoly on racism. He described how, no exaggeration, their local brown people were very much real life second class citizens, and it really left an impression on me.
Sorry to see it's not gotten better. Deport Racists!
