Get the racism mug.Related Words
Unlike the previous definition that was heavily misleading, Institutional (or Institutionalized) Racism defined by sociologists actually refers to the discriminatory racial practices that are rooted into the political, economic, and educational systems.
People often have the misconception that this term is a "concept" or "ideology" that proposes some kind of theory to subvert white culture.
It is not a theory, it is not an ideology, it is not some sort of lame excuse used to defend an argument, it is merely a fact which states that some institutions, be it your family or your schoolmates at school, will hold biased views towards an ethnic minority as if it was commonsense. In fact, one might not even be aware that they are being racist (in contrast to intentional racism), hence it's not their fault.
For example, according to one study in 2005, black people in Kingston Ontario were nearly four times to be pulled over by the police compared to white people. The police force admitted that they never had the attention to cherry pick people based on race, it was just a systematic reaction that they formed unconsciously.
In reality, you are most ever likely to come across this term while taking a sociology 101 course. Anyone else who tries to discredit this but has not taken one course in sociology will only be embarrassing themselves, so use this term wisely. That goes for any other people who uses this term incorrectly or in the wrong context.

Get the Institutional Racism mug.Micro-Racism is when some somebody is kinda racist usually without realizing it. Usually happens when some privledged white person who is racially ignorant and makes some dumb comment. Like Bradley or some shit says “why can’t white people say the n-word???? Cause their white????? That’s reverse racism.”
Chet: (to black person) “heyyyyy you look like Beyoncé”

Get the Micro-Racism mug.The activity of posting racist comments on the internet. Includes any and all activity that disseminates, reinforces, promotes or perpetuates racial hate via the web. Written by an e-racist, these hate-filled rants are typically found on message boards and public comment sections throughout cyberspace.
If you read the public comments at Youtube for the Micheal Richards video, you'll agree that the level of e-racism displayed there is quite shocking.
Example #2: Every time a black person is voted off American Idol, the public message board for the show over-flows with e-racism.

Get the e-racism mug.Racism is a tool of the power elite to deprive the common man of Liberty and property by blaming a small, powerless minority for all problems in society. The plebeian is so distracted by alleged "inferior" races, he has no notice or knowledge of his enslavement by his Government. Racism is often employed under the guise of Reason;unknowingly the same proponents of racism allege that the individual does not exist. Racism is often employed by statists (KKK,Mecha,New Black Panthers) who desire nothing more than having the power of God over Man.
National Socialist:Jews are secretly in control of Germany! Rid yourself of Liberty and give the State all power! White Power!
(Resulted in the enslavement of the German people)
New Black Panther: Vote for Obama! Give the Executive all power, if you refuse this you are racist! Black Power!
(Resulted in the Executive becoming a dictator and waging war against 6 nations at once
Chinese Communist: Give all power to the State! Distribute all wealth equally, and give the Chinese People a leader they can trust! Han Power!
(Resulted in the enslavement of the Han Chinese to a tyrannical Government)
Racism leads to the dehumanization of all Men,intended or not.
