RACISM
Racism is the belief that groups of humans possess different behavioral traits
corresponding to inherited attributes and can be divided based on the superiority of
one race over another. It may also mean prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism
directed against other people because they are of a different race or ethnicity. Modern
variants of racism are often based in social perceptions of biological differences
between peoples. These views can take the form of social actions, practices or beliefs,
or political systems in which different races are ranked as inherently superior or
inferior to each other, based on presumed shared inheritable traits, abilities, or
qualities. There have been attempts to legitimize racist beliefs through scientific
means, such as scientific racism, which have been overwhelmingly shown to be
unfounded. In terms of political systems (e.g. apartheid) that support the expression
of prejudice or aversion in discriminatory practices or laws, racist ideology may
include associated social aspects such as nativism, xenophobia, otherness, segregation
, hierarchical ranking, and supremacism.

AM I RACIST?
We often put labels on people. He dresses like this so he must
be into this music. She goes to that school so she must be rich.
We can also stereotype people from different racial backgrounds
as "lazy", "brainy", "aggro"… you get the idea. The way to beat
the stereotypes? Don't judge a whole group. Get to know people
from different racial backgrounds and find out how much you
have in common.
NON-RACIST
is simply not being racist.
 ANTI-RACIST
is working against racist systems and policies.

“
RACISM SPRINGS FROM THE LIE THAT CERTAIN HUMAN
BEINGS ARE LESS THAN FULLY HUMAN. IT'S A SELF-
CENTERED FALSEHOOD THAT CORRUPTS OUR MINDS
INTO BELIEVING WE ARE RIGHT TO TREAT OTHERS AS

”
WE WOULD NOT WANT TO BE TREATED.
