this is where you are ignorant.....While the terms "prejudice" and "racism" are often used interchangeably, they have distinct meanings, particularly when considering the element of power. Prejudice is a preconceived negative judgment or opinion about someone or a group, often based on stereotypes. It's an attitude held by an individual or group towards another. Prejudice doesn't require a power dynamic; anyone can be prejudiced towards someone from another group. Racism, on the other hand, involves one group having the power to enforce systematic discrimination against another racial group through societal institutions and policies. It includes not just individual prejudice but also systemic discriminatory practices and policies. Racism requires power to implement and perpetuate systems of oppression, with a dominant group using its power to disadvantage others. Examples include historical laws like Jim Crow or practices like redlining. The key distinction is that racism involves prejudice combined with power. While prejudice can be held by anyone, racism is a systemic issue rooted in power dynamics where a dominant group benefits from the oppression of others. The table below summarizes the key differences:Feature Prejudice RacismNature Preconceived negative attitude Systemic and institutional power structurePower dynamic Not necessarily involved Requires power to enforce discriminationScope Individual or group attitude Societal systems and structuresImpact Negative opinions or feelings Systemic discrimination and inequity Understanding this distinction is important because addressing prejudice can be done individually, but dismantling racism requires addressing broader societal structures and power imbalances.
Snore, you hadda copy and paste someone else's definition??? So you're a follower who can't think for yourself.
it appears you are equally ignorant as well
I can think for myself, and if you actually paid attention the post isn't about equality. It's about an old douche club who does nothing to attract young new faces from all sides. The refusal to let go of control. So there's your ignorance, and that thought was hatched without GOOGLING.
When the NBA demands that 73% of a team’s players be white. (That is the national average) then I will start telling my representatives from the USTA they need to diversify. If you can’t agree then you are a definition of racism
When the President of the United States doesnt even acknowledge a Federal holiday Juneteenth and says we need to get rid of some holidays on the same day I would say that is the true definition of a racist. Because you know, slavery was bad.
remember when you could have a different view point or opinion on something and not be called a racist
Yep pre Trumps first election. Now if you disagree you are a racist funny how the democrat representative from Somalia berated America for slavery 200 years ago but is proud of her former country that still has slaves
Slightly off topic, but he was sandbagging with this two week thing. US just bombed three nuclear sites in Iran, it's on.
Good. Unless you hate women. You want to champion racism but not sexism. BTW take your white ass to Iran and post all your stuff. By by
You really are fucking stupid aren't you Stan Turdhead. I'm a HUGE Trump supporter. I was hoping he was bullshitting with this two week thing. Can you fucking read??? Daddy raised a fucking moron???
