Not to sound rude but why does it matter? Isn’t it true that much of South America is predominantly indigenous anyway? So it would seem that the only people who have an issue are the non-indigenous European South Americans.

Racism is something which can still effect people, especially in larger cities where there are fewer indigenous people.

I'm not sure if you're being facetious but there are a lot of white, European descended South Americans.
