Guilt would be pointless. Awareness will suffice.

Doesn't need to be open and it doesn't even need to be plain racism (again, 
that's the point of the essay). But yes, Wikipedia tells me that Finland has 
2% of immigrants (vs 8-10% in countries like UK or France), most of them 
from neighbouring countries of close cultural background so I guess that 
these kinds of problems are rather theoretical there.
