I would say today thier is a lot of racism but I think more people do it as jokes more than seriously. Like for instance people joke around about black or natives or what not thier not like seriously hateful towards them. Like i I have some family who make racial jokes like ” I ran over a can once, an African!” But he was not actually racist. Back in the day though when they had slaves people really hated black people. Also in the book Mrs. Duboise was really racist towards black people mabey because she grew up during slaves. I don’t necciceraly agree with racism I just think its way over rated. That is just an opinion to me, like for instance native americans especially in South Dakota. They say we were racist for taking thier land so we give them money and its still not good enough for them. Also the n-word was a racist term that white people gave black people during slavery, know they just use it as a slang term.  No matter how much time goes by racism will always be around .
