I've had some discussions with older Iranian women that have led me to seriously rethink my biases around this.

That's funny. Because I've had some discussions with English people talking how racist and horrible Americans are to American blacks and then they turn around and start talking about how those "Damn Pakis" are taking over their country.

*facepalm*

Everyone thinks everyone else is racist and their own racism really doesn't count.

Pretty much.

This! Those discussions were more about sexism, but this was exactly my experience in germany. Though to be fair I also met many people who were smarter than this. The trick is to start seeing people instead of countries I guess...

Well I live in England and calling someone a Paki is considered ignorant and very racist. I think you are probably right about people in general, that we all need to be aware of our own racism, but it's not an English thing.
