That would be anti

The term "reverse racism" has been around for decades, a mis-application (sometimes intentional) to imply racism is automatically one way.

Would it though? People use the term anti-racist to mean they're against racism. How could you be racist and anti-racist at the same time?

People say reverse racism to call out the tactic of using racism to justify racism the other way. It's similar to the idea of hating everyone on the planet because a few people were mean to you.
