What is to prevent your boss from firing you for those “racist” sentiments?
Nothing.
Did you sign the employment agreement? Are you employed? Then they can do whatever they want with you if they deem your comments to disrupt the workplace, per your employment agreement. Happens every day, my friend.
You can say whatever you would like in your own home. But the workplace is different. The mall is different. The city bus is different. The movie theater is different. The sporting venue is different (your ticket is merely a license).
This is the society in which we live. And a society that does not tolerate overt blatant racism is an American society of which I am proud to be a part. That is an American value, that we have learned the hard way through our collective histories, that I very much respect.
