Does racism still exsist?

I wanted to believe that racism no longer exists in the civilized world. Especially in the USA, because our country is considered the most democratic and tolerant in the whole world. But recently, I read on a news portal calgaryherald.com. I was amazed at that news. Now when the whole world supports black lives matter, when all US politicians say that it does not matter the skin color or gender of a person, this stupid woman says such things. I can't even imagine who could appoint her to such a high position.
