Institutionalized racism is racism that is part of the rules and customs of an organization, corporation, public or governmental body. The term has been attributed to Stokely Carmichael. He is said to have defined institutionalized racism as "the collective failure of an organization to provide an appropriate and professional service to people because of their color, culture or ethnic origin."
