Institutionalized racism refers to the systematic policies and practices within institutions that perpetuate racial discrimination and inequality. This form of racism is embedded in laws, regulations, and organizational procedures, often resulting in unequal treatment and opportunities for marginalized racial groups. It can manifest in areas such as education, healthcare, criminal justice, and employment, leading to significant disparities in outcomes based on race. Unlike individual acts of prejudice, institutionalized racism is often less visible and more challenging to identify and dismantle.
