‘Systemic Racism Roots’ offers a comprehensive examination of how institutional structures and historical policies have shaped and perpetuated racial inequalities in modern society. The book uniquely traces these patterns from their historical origins to present-day manifestations, distinguishing institutional racism from individual prejudice while demonstrating how seemingly neutral systems continue to maintain racial disparities.
Through a meticulous analysis of archival records, policy documents, and demographic data, the book reveals how historical practices like redlining, segregated education, and discriminatory lending have evolved into contemporary forms of inequality across housing, education, criminal justice, healthcare, and employment. The research presents compelling evidence that current racial disparities aren’t merely echoes of past discrimination but are actively maintained through modern institutional practices and policies.
The book progresses chronologically, beginning with foundational concepts and moving through historical developments to present-day manifestations of systemic racism. What sets this work apart is its systematic approach to tracking how discriminatory practices have been reformulated rather than eliminated, combining quantitative analysis with qualitative examination of institutional decision-making processes.
Written for scholars, policymakers, and informed general readers, each chapter features specific case studies and practical frameworks for identifying and addressing institutional barriers, making it an invaluable resource for those working toward meaningful social change.
