Love that typo, autocorrect strikes again. But I wouldn’t say the country is deeply, deeply racist. That just feels a little harsh. It’s racist for sure, but I would reserve the double deep for when slavery was still allowed. Also I think it is a bit of human nature to be racist in that humans naturally form groups, and race is an easy way to do it for a lot of people. Humans just haven’t evolved at the same rate our technology and society have. You have to put effort into not being racist (unconscious bias) and a lot of people just don’t know that. Others don’t care. The number of countries that are more racist than the US is probably greater than those that are less. We still all have a lot of work to do, but it’s going to take time.
