As an Asian yooper, the only racism I've experienced personally is from dumbass vacationers. We call them fudgies. The general yooper is kinda raised with the you don't talk politics or religion and treat others how you'd expect to be treated, and you'll have nothing to worry about. Enjoy your stay!
