    Racism in the sense that we use it refers to systemic oppression, whereas an individual would be expressing prejudice or bigotry. Discrimination at such a small scale generally would not be considered racism because the neighborhood, at least in America, would still be part of the systematic oppression of black people in the US, and racial animus between the black students and white students would need to be understood within the context of the much larger system of racial oppression.
