“Racism will never be eradicated until there is the reconciliation of the heart, until we really acknowledge the history of hurt, the history of displacement, the history of hypocrisy, usurpation and arrogance.

It is no good repeating that we are not racist. We are, and perhaps the recognition and acceptance may help to dissolve the characteristic. We will have to work at it. If we don’t, then we will not enter this soil in a good shape.”  Peter Gebhardt, The Age 28 May 2013

Passive Complicity endorses this view.

AND PLEASE CHECK OUT THIS as a not so passive response to racism!
