QUOTE 1 "Racism couples the false assumption that race determines psychological and cultural traits with the belief that one race is superior to another."A World of Difference project of the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai Brith.
QUOTE 2 "Racism is any attitude, action, or institutional structure which subordinates a person or group because of skin color." U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, 1970
QUOTE 3 "We define racism as an institutionalized system of economic, political, social, and cultural relations that ensures that one racial group has and maintains power and privilege over all others in all aspects of life.
Individual participation in racism occurs when the objective outcome of behavior reinforces these relations, regardless of the subjective intent."
