The institutional racism on college campuses is the fact that lower standards exist for admissions and scholarships for students who aren't white or Asian.

It's when you don't feel like answering the professor's questions in front of your peers because if you're wrong you'll appear stupid.

You must first unlearn your white privilege. You cannot understand you can only listen and encourage. Just you being white on campus could instigate racial tension due to your white privilege.

This is the actual white ally definition of it.

It's racism that they can't prove exists but know it does.

And if you don't know it does, you get to resign.

Institutional racism is assuming that your grades suck because your professor is racist rather than because you are a dumbass.

Institutional racism is thinking that police target you because you're a minority and not because you're a d&%k to them, do illegal shite, and then resist arrest.

Institutional racism is thinking that anyone who is rude to you does so because they're racist, and not because this world happens to be filled with douche-canoes.

Institutional racism is assuming that white chicks won't date you because they're racist, and not because you're a poor, unattractive, whiny prick.

Institutional racism is being raised in a two parent household.

Institutional racism is assuming that you're excluded from the fraternity system when you never even tried rushing in the first place.

Institutional racism is thinking that frat didn't pick you because you're a minority, and not because you were a stuck-up, holier-than-though arse hole.

Institutional racism is believing that the classic adage "play stupid games win stupid prizes" shouldn't apply to you because you're a minority.

Institutional racism is believing that you are entitled to special treatment in the name of "equality".

I kinda thought "Affirmative Action" was the great equalizer.

Time to get rid of!

Institutional isn't the word I would use.
Systematic is more appropriate.

Great question. Here's some examples:

quote:

Opposing public school funding is not necessarily an act of individual racism; one can certainly oppose public school funding for valid, non-racist reasons. But to the extent that opposing public school funding has a disproportionate and detrimental effect on minority youth, it furthers the agenda of institutional racism.



quote:

Most other positions contrary to the civil rights agenda--opposition to affirmative action, support for racial profiling, and so forth--also have the (often unintended) effect of sustaining institutional racism.


Read this informative article

Basically, if any group, business, institution does not hire, honor or lavishly award a black person at every opportunity possible, it's institutionally racist. That is the case even if ALL logical conclusions suggest otherwise

I keep telling all of you it's about nothing

Not even a hidden agenda IMO because by now they'd have gotten to the point

There's one kid who is using this to further his ambitions. I wouldn't call that an agenda

If you don't know then you're part of the problem. You need to do some research instead of demanding that others inform you.

If you're protesting, it's to achieve something. Common sense would dictate you have a message and try and inform people of your view and what you want or what you want changed

Otherwise you're just some a-hole wasting everyone's time
