Dear Brother Azam Khan,
There is an old saying five fingers are not always same similarly there are good and bad people in this world.According to my poor Knowledge no religion in the world teaches bad. The people who follow the religion could be good and bad. If you come in interaction with someone racist you behave nicely with him in a similar way as Prophet Mohammed PBOH. He will change his mind.

Islam."

God created a human pair to herald the beginning of the life of mankind on earth and all the persons inhabiting this world today have sprung from this pair. For some time in the initial stages the progeny of this pair remained a single group. It had one religion and spoke the same language. There were little or no difference among them. But as their numbers gradually increased, their diversification and growth were divided into various tribes, and nationalities. Their languages became different; their modes of dress varied; and their manners of living also became distinct from one another.

All these differences are said to be signs from Allah. They do exist in the world of reality. Hence, Islam recognizes them as matters of fact. It does not seek to wipe them out or to ignore them but affirms that their advantage consists in affording the only possible means of distinguishing one form the other.
