There are many forms of racism, like for example classism. What makes them
common is that there is a negative relationship between the powerful
person/s and powerless person/s. Thus, the racist is the powerful and the
victim of it is usually powerless. [Intermission?: click http://www.antiracism.info]
In fact, racism can be traced back into family. Sometimes, the parents
form a negative relationship with their offspring. Or, it could be
brothers and/or sisters form a ‘sibling rivalry’. The sufferings of
this can last far past the time when events actually happened. [Intermission?:

A pattern has been identified with racism – there is first the victim of
racism and then the victim becomes the racist. So for example, a victim
becomes a victim when abused verbally – the victim then in their own
community then becomes a racist by verbally abusing others. This domino
process shows the massive extent of bad karma. [Intermission?:

It has been researched that the pattern can only be broken when the racist
and victims are given care and attention. Otherwise they can become remote
and isolated, to again go on a racist campaign. [Intermission?: click http://www.antiracism.info]
What the most problematic situation for the victim of racist is the
internal racist aspect or impact. What happens to victims is that they
start infighting and become disunited. Instead of doing the opposite, i.e.
becoming organized and unified, the victims keep arguing and disintegrate.
Thus there is more damage from inside than from the outside. [Intermission?:

How can this be solved? What has been put forward is that there needs to
be an allied outside group formed that can provide help to the victims.
Thus allied organizations or people can help the infighting victims by
removing the blinders or obstacles. So this is how destruction of a race
can be halted. [Intermission?:
