In simple terms, racism is the belief that distinct human races exist and that one race is superior to another. This definition is generally agreed by the Oxford English Dictionary, Merriam-Webster Dictionary (USA) and the Macquarie Dictionary (Australia).
Linguistically, as the word is a general abstraction that does not in and of itself connote a great deal of positive or negative meaning without additional context (i.e., racism = noun of action/condition regarding race), its definition and semantics are not entirely settled.dditionally, the OED records racism as a synonym of racialism : belief in the superiority of a particular race. By the end of World War II, racism had acquired the same supremacist connotations formerly associated with racialism: racism now implied racial discrimination, racial supremacism and a harmful intent.
