If you do a Google search using words such as, "bible stories related to racism" you will get lots of hits.  Suggestions of Bible stories to use were: Good Samaritan, Moses, Ruth & Naomi, Rahab...  I'd pick a few, then look in those lesson forums for material that would work with your racism theme.

The Sneetches, by Dr. Seuss would be appropriate for this unit.  The ones with "stars upon thars" acted superior to the no-star belly sneetches.

This could be acted out in a drama workshop very easily.

How about some Creative Writing and tying to NPR's Michele Norris and her Race Card Project? Her project was to spark thoughts about race and ethnicity written in just six words. Could also be a Computer Workshop idea if you've got internet access you could explore her site, and maybe use Let's Talk to speak their thoughts?
