I'm sorry, but this is horribly wrong Ibby. Racism is asumptions made based on race, period. They don't even have to be negative assumptions: the stereotype that all Asians are good at math is just as much racism as the stereotype that they are bad drivers.
"Stuff that helps contribute to the systems of oppression of minority groups" is just a longer phrase for "oppression."
