You classify people on the basis of discredited and biologically meaningless 'racial' categories. Ergo, you're a racist.
To help you understand why such categories are meaningless to anybody except racists, perhaps you could tune into the documentary series called "Human Journey" that is currently screening on ABC1. While it's dumbed down for general viewers, the science upon which it is based is up to date. There's been two episodes so far, both of which are available for viewing on iView.
Ask yourself this: how does it increase your understanding of people to arbirarily divided them into categories based on their skin colour or other phenotypic differences?
