Hi. I have visited Poland once before and am shortly returning. I must admit that while i was there i noticed that everyone was white. This was quite strange for me, as living in England my whole life, i have grown up in a multicultural society. I have also heard rumours about their racial views. But having been there...i would say to you that it is much the same as UK. It depends entirely on the individual and their generation. They are lovely people and i am sure you will have a great time :)

Most Poles are not openly racist. The footie guys joke about it but it's a very different thing from brutally beating up a black guy. People the world over see differences and the Poles are no different.

You shouldn't worry. Most of the racist stuff is written by people from the US/Canada, Ireland, Australia, UK etc who've rarely or (more usually) never actually been to Poland. People here are generally friendly, even if they don't always look it!

People in Poland are rather helpful even if they don't look friendly. They're no racist, of course they like jokes about other nations but with no ill will or hostility, just like in any other country.
