Racism exists between all races but the injustices, which the civil rights movement was predicated on, exist as undercurrents. I think there is a key difference there.

Additionally, voter suppression, from the right fuels distrust between minorities and whites. I've gone into this at lengths in the past.

I absolutely agree with this. The republicans definitely have a long way to go in changing their party's mindset about civic issues if they want to get close to having black voters trust them.
