There are indeed some noticable minorities in France, the Netherlands, and Germany. And there are noticable problems.
In the US, blacks account for around 12% of the population. Hispanics are now around 15% and climbing. That's not to mention Asians, Arabs, Indigenous peoples, and others, most of whose numbers are climbing. Indeed the USA has the most generous immigration policy and its primarily aimed at non-whites. Not the hallmark of a racist society, is it?
There is no way France, the Netherlands, and Germany could handle those numbers. And there is not an argument in the universe that would convince me otherwise.
Germany has, what? A Turkish minority that does not even approach double digits percentage wise. Yet there are frequent problems. If 13% of Germany's population was composed of black people who were descended from slavery, there is no way in hell the situation would be devoid of numerous tensions and problems. No society on the planet would function without issues.
So in the pissing contest of who is more racist, Europe wins. In a landslide.
You are quite an
Hispanic is not a race.
In fact, the most homogenous European country outside Europe is Argentina.
Argentina, Uruguay, Australia, and Canada are the most Homogenous European countries outside Europe aka white countries of the new world.
Chile is even whiter than the U.S.
Mexicans are North Americans...they have nothing to do with south America.
The demographics of Brazil are very similar to the U.S.
Brazil has the lasrgest population of Italians outside Italy with over 25 million Italian Brazilians. Also they have the second largest population of Germans outside Europe. More than 12 million German Brazilians..etc etc Portuguese, Spaniards, polish, etc.
You must be a white meztizo like Elvis Presley who believes is white like a Euro.
The majority of "white US Americans" are not as white/pure as Europeans.

Yes Eduardo, I know Hispanic is not a race. One can be Hispanic and be white, black, indigenous, or various mixtures of all.
Understand that byte space is limited and some of us do not feel the need to spoon feed semantics or extensive descriptions of what we assume is known a priori.
As someone of who is composed of Irish, German, Swedish, Anglo, and Danish blood, I am as you describe. Do not look like Elvis. I used to look like Rob Lowe, but then I hit middle age. So did he, so maybe I still look like him.
Anyway Amigo, you may withdraw your at your convenience.

You still don't get it, i was saying that Europe has so many different countries with different cultures and people. You can't generalize it!
