Why is the United States so segregated?

300 million people and you're able to tell us what most of them are like? That kind of arrogance is impressive.

That's what I meant with the last paragraph. I'm not calling people racist because they're American. Of course, there are racist Americans out there (see neonazi groups), but what I'm calling racist is the American culture. I'm not blaming people from the US, I'm just asking them to reflect about the subject.

The majority of the USA is actually not bad. What you are seeing is the free media we have, and all the extremes; it’s what gets shared online the most because it’s one hell of a money maker. The topic of racism is always in the media’s best interest if they want more clicks.

But the biggest mistake I see people making, even for people who live in the USA is believing in the media. There are reliable sources out there, but they aren’t what the masses follow. It used to be the media’s job to get news out there, but then it really just turned into how do we make more money. 

That being said, yes, racism exists. Is it okay? No. But it will always exist and people need to learn to accept that bad things happen, and there will never be a utopia unless ruled under harsh regulations. Which would in turn, not make it a utopia. The culture is not to be racist, in day to day situations, you don’t enounter racism that often. And when you do, half the time someone is using the color of their skin to victimize them self based on a comment from someone that had nothing to do with their actual skin color.
