Racism through History

There was very pronounced racism among Arabs, among others. While the dates are hard to pin down, a LOT of the tales in "1001 Nights" have pretty racist things in them.

Is it racism when Kyrgiz people kill Uzbeks? They are both of the same biological race, and both Muslims of the same faith but they kill each other because of their ethnicity. This kind of "racism" was widespread in the ancient times.

But I doubt the skin color meant much in old times because at those times people could not travel large distances and those who encountered blacks were familiar with them and could distinguish different ethnicities and kinds of blacks. That is they were considered just as ordinary neighboring peoples and subjects of ethnic, not racial "racism".
