>Racism is relative.

>things like affirmative action and prefered minority hiring would be seen as totally racist here

No they aren't

Whole Central Europe from Poland to Hungary through Ukraine and the Balkan and racist against Roma people. Pretty much everyone hates them. Most governments and the EU have special programs to help Roma people to get jobs because they are discriminated everywhere.



If a Roma individual took up a job and integrated with society, would they still be Roma?


Probably not, and he will be shunned by his community. The Roma problem is at this moment unsolvable and it will lead to some sad situation at some point :(.
