The same can be said for Catholics, jews, Muslims that all congregate together for whatever end. They prefer being around those who believe what they believe or have a shared culture or value system. None of which makes them a racist.
Most of the time people screaming "racism" are clueless as to what it means in the first place.

possibly an exception is when white people decide they like living by each other, but to me that's more of a cultural situation than racial. racism has become a cultural catch phrase denoting the behavior of white people.
