Racism of the gaps

The claim that all currently unexplained disparities between two given groups or individuals, must be caused by racism.

Inspired by the God of the gaps argument.

Titania McGrath: French-Americans average salary is lower than that of Russian-Americans. I don’t know why, so it must be because of racism.

James Lindsay: That is the «Racism of the gaps» argument.
