Define race, then.

The social stuff matters a lot too. Ostracism, glass ceilings, etc. is all highly harmful racism. I don’t see a ton of difference between racists who want to keep other people down through legalistic means and through social means.

Race is also a very subjective matter, based mainly on our notions of appearances. Somebody one-eighth black migh appear “white” to us, but would have been considered “black” under slavery.

And I neglected to include social and economic discrimination along with legal discrimination.
