Systemic Racism

Institutional racism, also known as systemic racism, is defined as policies and practices that exist throughout a whole society or organization and that result in and support a continued unfair advantage to some people and unfair or harmful treatment of others based on race. It manifests as discrimination in areas such as criminal justice, employment, housing, health care, education and political representation.1

The term institutional racism was first coined in 1967 by Stokely Carmichael and Charles V. Hamilton in Black Power: The Politics of Liberation.2 Carmichael and Hamilton wrote in 1967 that, while individual racism is often identifiable because of its overt nature, institutional racism is less perceptible because of its "less overt, far more subtle" nature. Institutional racism "originates in the operation of established and respected forces in the society, and thus receives far less public condemnation than individual racism".3

Institutional racism was defined by Sir William Macpherson in the UK's Lawrence report (1999) as: "The collective failure of an organization to provide an appropriate and professional service to people because of their color, culture, or ethnic origin. It can be seen or detected in processes, attitudes, and behavior that amount to discrimination through prejudice, ignorance, thoughtlessness, and racist stereotyping, which disadvantage minority ethnic people.

The Number System

The Number System is used by those who want to keep the names of their lovers/crushes a secret between close friends and in public places such as school or in the mall. Each Love, Crush is numbered in numerical order and it does not matter if one has spoken with their crush yet.

For Example 1 is the First Crush and 5 would be your fifth crush.

Guy - Anyway she seen me at the supermarket.
Friend- Oh cool, did she say anything to you?

When you take a shit that smells so awful that anyone entering the cubicle might need a 'buddy' to assist them in the event of collapsing as the stench is so toxic.

system of a down

Really. They would be decent if their music wasn't such crap metal. It sounds like they're banging a guitar against the wall and calling it music. Make your music bearable and THEN I'll consider liking you.
SOAD doesn't have bad lyrics, but the music behind them is so terrible it totally degrades the band.
