Law of Conservation of Racism

Analogous to the Law of Conservation of Energy, Conservation of Racism states that the total racism of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be constant over time. This law means that racism can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.
Student 1: paraphrase of Ibram Kendi, "Racism didn't go way after civil-rights act was passed. It just became more complex."
Student 2: That's the belief of the Law of Conservation of Racism.
