Question

Do we consider stereotyping as racism?

Answer 1

EVERYONE stereotypes.... even without the sound you can pick out the good guys and the bad guys in a movie or TV show.....just by how they look..... it is a part of our life... stereotyping is a mental evaluation of what you see.... as long as that evaluation is not acted upon.....it is not racism

Not everyone is a racist.....racism is a conduct.....an action.... it can be based on stereotyping but is not caused by it....

Answer 2

Maybe it's racism, but to me, its more  due to ignorance. A person who loves  to stereotype  is an ignoramus -  person unacquainted, misinformed and not informed  with certain kinds of knowledge.

Answer 3

stereotyping could be positive or negative. if you use it in a negative way and is geared towards races, yes that is still racism.

stereotyping is a form of racism.

racism could also be banning the indigenous people from voting or could be shoving them away in the streets, there are various kinds.
