I don't understand the racist element in this discussion. We don't have to use race to distract us from the fact that Islam is in serious need of a reformation.
There are quite a few schools/laws aka demoninations in it and even with in the Sunni and Shi'a there are school within them. Much like Christanity has different denominations within itself.
Sunni's have Hanafi(the most liberal, which I belong to), Shafi'i( most traditional scholars and Sunni authorities belong to it), Maliki and Hanbali(mainly followed on the Arabian Peninsula).
The Shi'a have 4 schools as well, but I am not that familiar with them.
But for an outsider to say that Islam needs to be refomred is quite ignorant. I would never say that Christanity needs to be reformed. I would let thoses that practice that religion decide what is best for them.
