I like to think that I would be against racism even if I was completely surrounded by racists, just as I am an outspoken atheist who is basically completely surrounded by theists.

As long as a human being is not being subjugated at the expense of another human, then what is being done is clearly ethically proper.

The only freedom, is freedom from illusion.
