[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 1043001, member: 72977"] Some people are arguing that racism is prejudice with power. Everyone has prejudices and biases that are in appropriate, but racism comes when you have power over others to enforce that prejudice. Obviously this is different to the law, but I find it an interesting discussion, because essentially a black person in this country can only be racially prejudicial, not racist as they don't have power to enforce their prejudices. For me what the chiefs are doing isn't racist, it's more inconsiderate and disrespectful as well as appropriating someone else's culture. Surely there is enough culture is this country to adopt, without going to America for someone else's. [/QUOTE]
