When I grew up it might be useful to say that most White people were racists if they hadn't been to college and met a more diverse group of people and made friends with them. The most likely people then and now to be White Racists are people who grow up isolated from other races or people who have been soldiers who get PTSD and have emotional problems with paranoia from being exposed to Battle or torture.
So, likely the same is true now as well around the world.
The cure often is them going to college and or making friends with other races and other religions around the world.
People around the world are not as different as many white people who are isolated around only white people often think.
For example, in U.S. states where people are mostly white you are going to tend to have more white racists simply because those people have never met people different from them and made friends with them.
One of the things that helped end white racism a lot in the U.S. was the Peace Core here in the U.S. where college students from the U.S. go to help other nations around the world build buildings and farms and help purify water for drinking around the world.
So, rather than young people joining the military where in battle often they are wounded psychologically or physically or both and if they are white maybe moved into a more paranoid way of looking at things from having been tortured or captured or fighting for their lives, maybe more young white people should join the Peace Core and other such groups to help the world. This giving help to all other races makes people the opposite of white racists along the way.
I know that traveling to India, Nepal, Japan, and Thailand for 4 months in 1985 an 1986 helped me and my children better understand people in Asia too and helped us become not only better American Citizens but also better citizens of Planet Earth as well.
