“What makes racism different from individual prejudice is who has institutional power. White people control our government systems and institutions in every sector, from law enforcement and education to health care and the media, leading to laws and policies that can advantage white people while disadvantaging everyone else.

White people’s dominance in our systems is why you may have heard people refer to the U.S. as a white supremacist society. In this context, white supremacy does not refer to hate groups such as neo-Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan but rather an entire system where one group has all the advantages. “Racism is white supremacy,” says Joseph Barndt, an organizer and core trainer with PISAB and author of Understanding and Dismantling Racism: The Twenty-First Century Challenge to White America. “It’s empowering one alleged racial group over another and creating systems to reinforce that.”
