Racism? It's a mere word that has no carries no meaning in the west anymore. People overuse it these days to the point where it has lost its very definition. It's very much like the phrase 'feminism' in that regard.

Talking to a girl is the same as talking to anyone else. Like yaasshat said don't pressure yourself into thinking a girl as a potential partner. I used to make the same mistake before and it just created unneeded stress. Be yourself, make small talk and see how it plays out. Most of them will ignore you/make small talk then leave but you might catch someones interest. Good Luck.

Parents divorced when I was around 7. Treated like property for a few years there. Lived in borderline poverty growing up due to divorce costs and having to sell the fully paid for house. Both parents lived in trailer parks for extended periods of time. I was constantly being shipped back and forth between them. My father working 3rds plus overtime was always too exhausted to do much. My mother constantly on Xanax. Around late elementary, early middle school I started having behavior problems. Then had to deal with bullies on top of it. Eventually I fought back and my bully problems ended. Finally my dad decided to cut his losses and moved back in to provide me a father figure and direction. Things went as well as they could have the rest of school. Though at one point I caught my girlfriend at the time cheating and fell into a deep depression. Parents took it as me being lazy and kicked me out. I still completed school, but it was by the skin of my teeth. Finally I went and got an associates degree while working. Then struck out on my own in business and home. I now run a hotel, am no longer bordering on poverty, I run a side business building and fixing computers, I trade stocks, I also mine and trade crypto-currency. It was a very hard road, but I wouldn't change a thing as it made me who I am today.
