I'm no pacifist. I do tend to look for the root of problems and not the symptoms though. Almost all racism and racial superiority is driven by fear. Fear of the "other"..

Committing violence against them only increases that fear and validates it. The only answer is to eliminate their fear. Eliminate that fear of the "other" and you eliminate the resentfulness anger and hate right along with it.

Which leaves the question, how do you eliminate their fear? This black man has done it, and he personally reformed about 200 klan members so far, and has a huge collection of KKK robes to prove it. http://www.npr.org/2017/08/20/544861933/how-one-man-convinced-200-ku-klux-klan-members-to-give-up-their-robes
