"who instigates racism"?
i think its fair to say that this comes from the fact that the bourgeoise created border to enhance their own personal wealth. Lets look at examples, Inthe 17th century Louis 14th wanted to increase the size of his borders, so that France and he could become more wealthy entities. By having more land you make more money. This was the feudal age. For him to justify the numerous wars he claimed that Spanish, Dutch, English, Jews, Jesuits, were bad for France, therefore should be attacked.
The came capitalism, and the bourgeoise built itself up within their own nation states (which had been established during feudal times). However, the final stage of capitalism, imperialism (which weve been in for the last 100 odd years), is one which needs to go outside the boundries of ones own "nation state". Let us look at one of the early examples of imperialism, WW1, here the British wanted more land, the germans wanted more land, the french wanteed more land, and the russians wanted more land. To justify the war the capitalist class claimed the other nations were barbarians and were stopping the progress of their own "nation state". For this to work, the capitalist class must split the working class into nations and races to justify capitalist imperialist methodolgy (war). This seemingly brings differences between races, which in turn brings racism. It is more self evident when in times of class conflict (such as were entering now), when the cpaitlaist leans towards fascism to help it survive, here it depends even MORE on ficticious race differences (See: Assylum laws). It must do this to stop the working class from being class consious and therefore overthrowing the capitalist class.
We can see how this changed in the USSR, when in 1917 when Russia pulled out of the war, it stated that they were all one, ie the russian working class and german working class were a single identity, and it was anal to fight each other, this led to the USSR supporting the german working class to overthrow the german capitalist class. HOWEVER, the german capitalist class again WENT TO FASCISM FOR HELP, in the form of the freikorps to smash the class conflict in favour of bourgeoise.
Differenciation merely helps the capitalist class divide and rule us, only through solidarity of class can we smash racism, and this can only be done through smashing capitalism.

Of course Marx himself was a product of the initiates heavily influenced in his ideas by Adam Weishupts Bavarian Order of the Illuminati.
But the Marxist from Manchester wouldn't understand this. Just read my tagline.
