Difference between xenophobia and racism

This article inappropriately conflates xenophobia and racism throughout. The two are similar, but differ in important ways that have been missed or ignored. The second paragraph of the article explains it well: "According to UNESCO, the terms xenophobia and racism often overlap, but differ in how the latter encompasses prejudice based on physical characteristics while the former is generally centered on behavior based on the notion of a specified people being adverse to the culture or nation."

Unfortunately much of the article assumes that all racism is xenophobia while ignoring non-racial xenophobia. This could use major clean-up. Paisarepa (talk) 01:03, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
