Redlining and sentencing disparities are institutionalized racism, not systemic racism.
- RoboticWater 6y agoI was honestly unaware of the difference. Upon looking up the term on Wikipedia, the first line is "Institutional racism (also known as systemic racism)." Every subsequent article I looked at under the google search "systemic racism vs institutional racism" seemed to make roughly the same equality.
- dnautics 6y agoI'm under the impression that institutional refers to specific formal institutions, like policing, jobs markets, etc. Systemic refers to that plus informal cultural biases, that is institutional is a subset of systemic.
- AQuantized 6y agoDo you not think the institutions of justice are systems? Not sure I get what you're trying to communicate.
