Racism is systematic, so I would say no.
Discrimination on the other hand, sure.

i don't really get this. Like, the definition in the dictionary doesn't require racism to be systematic?

It might not be the definition in a dictionary, but words and their meanings change. For example, literal now means both literal and figurative. When people speak of racism in America they don't mean a dude was mean to them because of the color of their skin.

in general we use the word racism to refer to the structures in place that uphold racial inequities. so, no. you may be in a bubble that could use further exposure
prejudice is another matter, and that’s the word i use when referring to judgement based on skin color
