Racism occurs in varying degrees in all parts of the planet. From its most outrageous manifestations...
Slavery, imperialism, the Holocaust, and apartheid, to the microaggressions and subtle signs of prejudice, racism is still prevalent in our societies. It impacts social interactions, shapes the systems of opportunity and life chances, and can cause conflict and war.
The legacy of racial discrimination continues to weigh heavily on the economic prospects of many communities and nations. It constrains expectations for social stability and influences the adoption of public policies for prosperity, justice, and social progress.
Now more than ever, it’s time for us to understand what racism is and how it functions in all its forms. Only then can we hope to model and promote anti-racist behaviors that ensure racial justice for our communities.
