Soft Racism
When someone (often an old foreigner) says something with a soft racial undertone about another race that is not meant to be derogatory but often comes out in a way that may make others slightly uncomfortable and slightly embarrassed yet sympathetic for said old person.
Often it is because of a difference in social and cultural norms that they say something softly racist.
