Before we start bashing and spitting on our own race, let's not forget that skin color discrimination is 10 times greater in East Asia and the Middle East, there is even an ancient Chinese saying 'Fair skin is equivalent to three blemishes'.
BTW, with Blacks in the U.S., there was and still is subtle but extensive discrimination between the fairer and darker skinned.
Latin America the skin color discrimination is obivious with their racist christian caste system. Interesting how every leader of Mexico is a White guy (even Vincente Fox today), when the country is like 6% White and is overwhemingly Mestizo. This is very common in South America also, Hugo Chavez is one big exception, that's partly why he is hated because he wants to break the Christian caste system.
Discrimination in the West is obvious, I think it's funny to see racist Skinheads and Klansmen especially in the U.S. south when it was their own ancestors who brought Africans over. So even their ancestors believed in a diverse society and not a racially pure one.
It's important to point these things out, so Indians don't start thinking that everybody else is wonderful and tolerant while only Indians are evil.
