Racial Capitalism

A form of capitalism in which parties capitalize on the idea of them being progressive or them favoring any person who is in a racial minority (in the region) or any woman.

This can be done through propaganda, advertisements, misleading or false data, or by hiring mostly racial minorities or women.

Many colleges are using racial capitalism.

Racial Inequity

Racial inequity speaks to the unfair distribution of resources and opportunities between white people and Black, Indigenous, and people of color. It is caused by racist structures, policies, and practices that ensure that BIPOC experience disadvantages when it comes to education, employment, healthcare, housing, and more.
