Racial inequality

Racial inequality refers to the disparities in opportunity, treatment, and outcomes experienced by individuals of different races. This can manifest in various forms, including economic, social, and political disadvantages faced by certain racial groups compared to others. Examples of racial inequality include disparities in income, education, healthcare access, criminal justice outcomes, and housing opportunities.

Racial inequality is often rooted in systemic racism, which is the discrimination or oppression of individuals based on their race or ethnicity. This can be perpetuated through institutional policies and practices that disadvantage certain racial groups. Addressing racial inequality requires actively working to dismantle these systems of oppression and create a more equitable society for all individuals, regardless of their race. This may involve advocating for policies that promote equal opportunity, fighting against discrimination and prejudice, and working towards a more inclusive and diverse society.
