Racism follows logically from evolution, as it makes all the units of a
potential new species to support the species. A species needs to wish to
exist, or it will die out.
Racism and wish for longevity form the sides of he same coin, one of them
collectivistic (racism), the other individualistic (wish for longevity).
I believe one could say the problem lies with collectivism, of which
racism forms just a small part.
