Can only white people be racist?

I’ve seen it around, some people claim only white people can be racist.

Mariam Webster defines racism as: : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.

Do you believe anyone can be racist? Is the rumor only white people can be racist a racist phrase?

While social media tends to paint the picture that racism only occurs in the western hemisphere; anyone whose actually been to places like Russia, China/Japan, India, Middle East, etc. can tell you that those people are far more prejudiced against minorities/outsiders than we are...

Given the mixed ethnicity, varied ancestry, etc. of the US, we're actually probably one of the most tolerant in the world.
