Right now I think the biggest obstacle is stereotypes. You see this time and again. After 9/11 it seemed all Muslims were considered evil. After a shooting here in SLC at Trolley Square by someone from Bosnia...the Bosnian community fell under attack. I worked for a manager who thought all Mexicans were thiefs.

Until we can get away from the stereotypes, racism will never be completely eradicated.
