what is your point? that in the rest of the world racism wasn't a thing or that racism is actually classicism? both of these things aren't true

Well, "That's US-centric".
Racism doesn't even translate well to other countries today: not every country has the situation that a significant part of the population has ancestors that were relocated by force and had to work as slaves in recent history, and are easily distinguishable by skin color ("race").
Different countries, different problems. Hence, different delineations in the various culture wars all over the world.
