If you are making a derogatory statement towards a person because of their color without fact, than you are making a prejudicial statement. Basically based on ingnorance. If you make the same statement and it hurts or hinders a group or individual,then you are making a racist statement(whether it is intentional or not). If its done to intentionally hurt, you are a racist.
Think about how many statements we make toward persians today. There were alot more iraqi victims(those that sadaam killed) than were aggressors, but we tend to group them all together as terrorist. That's prejudicial. But to keep an american/iraqi from getting a job=racist.
