I'll get it back on track and I haven't read the thread yet so keep that in mind.

I personally don't believe in race even though I am subconciously racist because of where I was raised. There are two ways I can see racism going away.

1) Everyone becomes the same race
2) A society is fully integrated by race

The first reason is obvious and the second reason is because racism stems from stereotypes and a fully integrated society will eliminate the stereotypes, which will eliminate racism to the point where skin color and minute physical features will be as relevant as hair and eye color to white society today.

I think the first answer is more likely than the second unfortunately.
