I'm not even sure we know what racism is anymore in the U.S. Oh sure, we can identify people like David Duke or Marge Schott as racists but now what "racism" is has become so muddled and in the eye of the beholder that's it's almost meaningless.
For example, now you apparently can't call NBA owners "owners" because it's deemed a racist term now by some. Apparently, some NBA players are unable to nor think people in the US will be unable to discern the difference between a slave owner and an NBA owner. Well, they both use the word "owner" in them, so that must be racist right?
Here they are, having more wealth and privilege than 99.99% of white people will ever have, yet some NBA players are offended by the term "owners" who are, you know, the guys that give them all that money and privilege.
What's even worse, is that the owners, so afraid of being looked at as racially insensitive, appear to be caving in to the demand and will call themselves "chairmen" or something.
