my roommate was trying to tell me that he thinks that the USA is the most racist country in the world?
i say no way! The USA has tons of immigration and is very multicultural compared to most countries.
I said the middle east was a much more racist place in terms of accepting foreigners but he said no way!
what do you guys think?
Is the USA the most racist country in the world?
What is the most racist country in the world?

During the Apartheid era in South Africa was the most racist country i have lived in. Not so much anymore, infact exactly the opposite. Hence why im here.

How can a society change so quickly? Our most influential civil rights movement was during the 50's-60's... And there is still obvious racism. "Equal Opportunity" is still an option.

What do you mean by the title t-man? Experience from people watching TV and media are very different from people who actually have travelled and experienced the culture from themselves. The other question is... is the country racist, or it's people?

America is more ignorant than racist. Maybe the southern states are a different story but in my years here , i dont recall a single incident where someone has looked down on me because of the color of my skin (dunno if thats relevant since its not brown .)
The UK is probably the most racist country ive been to.

a lot of people don't see it, but out of the first world at least, japan is pretty racist. sure, they "idolize" other cultures, but they sure as hell won't want you to live in their country permanently or let you marry their sister. the citizens there are something like 99.x japanese, the remainder are korean, and even they receive stigma for not being pure.
