Racism is discrimination based on race

Racism is systemic discrimination based on race. For bigotry to become systemic, it has to be interrelated with social systems and hierarchy.

    Racism is systemic discrimination

    According to one woman who wrote this bullshit in 1970.

    One person making a claim does not make something true, Patricia Bidol-Padva doesn’t just get to change what words mean because she studied at a shit university.

    Also you’re out of date on your nonsense because critical race theory says you’re wrong

    Not really though, right?

    In fact, I’m pretty sure it’s the other way.

    Yes, really. Critical race theory has a conflicting definition of racism to the nonsense in the OP.

    Not that CRT is without issues but it’s funny how many people claim to support something without having read a damn thing.

    I’m not sure I agree. The precepts of “racism is ordinary”, social construction of race and social convergence seem to place racism directly in a systemic/social embedding.

    And that doesn’t even begin to address the inherent social nature of intersectionality.

    I would go as far as saying that in CRT racism is expressly defined as a property of society as a whole. Not merely prejudice based on skin color.

    In CRT racism is defined under four categories, of which two address the so called prejudice + power, neither of which is simply labelled as 'racism'.

    I'm done here, people keep referencing some dog shit work from the 1970's like its gospel and redefined a word for every society globally.

    I must say, you are a very poor communicator. You are jumping down people’s throat all over the thread, but trying to get info from you on your stance is like pulling teeth.

    Why are you even here?

    That said, “CRT does not use the word racism” is not exactly illuminating to the matter at hand. It’s also not true. Delgado& Stefanic mentions racism 16 times in the introduction alone.
