Systemic racism is a type of discrimination and prejudice against racial, ethnic, and religious groups. It refers to the ways in which certain advantages or disadvantages are made available to or withheld from people belonging to certain racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds as part of a broader cultural or societal pattern. This type of discrimination can occur through laws, regulations, policies, customs, and even personal actions, and can lead to disparities in access to opportunities and resources, as well as increased risk of discrimination. It can result in higher rates of poverty and lack of equal protection under the law.
