What are the problems caused by institutional racism?
Institutional racism is a cruel part of many societies. As opposed to individual racism, that is one person discriminating against another because of race, institutional racism has a larger scope. It can best be described by example. In a corporation it can be seen perhaps that all employees at the management level are of one race, say Caucasian as an example. Openings for jobs occur due to retirement, firing, or business expansion. Year after year, and instance one after another shows that only Caucasians receive management jobs. With good authority it can be said that the company will not let any other employees but Caucasians ones to get these jobs no matter who else applies for these positions. The company has a "unwritten" policy to not hire minorities to management jobs. Thus the racism is institutionalized.
I used Caucasian as an example however it can exist with any other race or ethnic background.
What are the punishments for racism?
To the best of my knowledge, there is no punishment for racism per se.
That said, in the United States there are criminal punishments for violating another person's civil rights, and there are enhancements for what are called "hate crimes," which are sometimes hard to define. I think for most people, though, a hate crime is a lot like pornography: I can't define it but I know it when I see it.

No, 'The White Man's Burden' has no validity at all, Kipling, though a great writer shared the racist views of many of his contemporaries during the nineteenth century. Their reputation as gentlemen and civilized people didn't quite fit with their conquering impoverished countries to grab up all of their natural resources.

How does Malorie Blackman have racism?
She really doesn't. But in her books, she portrays racism against White people as satire to the racism against people of color to make a point. Some may misunderstand and think that makes her racist, when she is merely depicting racism. The idea is to try to get a White audience to understand what racism against other groups feels like.
This strategy is much like an episode of Oprah. People with green eyes were singled out for mistreatment before the show and in the early part of the show. Then the speaker got up as an "expert" and said that eye color correlated with lower IQ, ruder behavior, etc. Then the audience members of the "privileged" group got up and said that had to be true, that the green-eyed people couldn't be quiet, etc. Then the speaker let everyone know there was really no difference and that this was just an experiment. The green-eyed people acted according to what was expected of them. There was no inherent differences, but unequal treatment reinforced negative behavior, and negative behavior reinforced the notion that the mistreatment was justified. So thus this is how racism works.
