I think the word Sheila was referring to was discrimination. Racism is based
on race. This discrimination was based on political preference.

who made several conservative political comments and commentaries on a
visit, actually inquired later about houses for sale. They were spurned
and at dinner one night there was much trash talk about them, how we
didn't want those kind of people, etc. Sheesh.

Could someone please explain to me how this is different from racism?
I'm sure there is a difference, but I can't see it.
