Satirical send-up of a bigot (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

racialist

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'bigot' is the definition.
(I know that racialist is a type of bigot)

'satirical send-up of a' is the wordplay.
'satirical' can be anagrammed to 'RACIALIST'.
But, I am not sure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for racialist that I've seen is " discriminating character".)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
