The Elves were not all good and fair, remeber Fëanor, he and his kinsmen, the Noldorians, were responsible for the Kin-Slayings of the Teleri Elves. Eöl was also an Elf who was corrupted. Some fell under the sway of Sauron and began to serve Melkor.

I wish that I had my books in front of me, I would be more specific on a few of the cases.

The thing that I noted on racism was the Elves and the Dwarves. The Elves were the chosen people of Ilùvatar. They were to be the first to awake, yet Aluë created the Dwarves first. I believe that this may have caused some of the contention between them, just as between the Jewish race(Issac) and the Palastinians (Ishmael).
