I do think that education through schools can help. When I was at secondary school in the 80s, most of the schools in my town were quite racially mixed and promoted a multi-cultural attitude. We celebrated Christmas and easter, harvest festival, and eid and ramadam. Come to think of it so was primary school.
For the most part my generation in that part of the country are pretty non racist.

Where I live now, we have very segregated schools (de facto, not de jure :P) and the generation growing up in them are much less cohesive.
