Racial Inequity

Racial inequity speaks to the unfair distribution of resources and opportunities between white people and Black, Indigenous, and people of color. It is caused by racist structures, policies, and practices that ensure that BIPOC experience disadvantages when it comes to education, employment, healthcare, housing, and more.

Racial Microaggression

Racial microaggressions are derogatory messages that Black, Indigenous, and people of color continuously receive about our racial identities. They can manifest as verbal and nonverbal abuse, and they come in the form of insults, criticism, eye-rolling, ignoring, and other forms of hostility. They reflect all the ways in which people have been conditioned to negatively view Black, Indigenous, and people of color.

post-racial

Commonly confused to mean "a society one generation removed from an era of prevalent racism", it is in fact a reference to the newly developed ability of racists to "post" their perennial screeds on the Internet through the use of blogs and message boards.

It is no surprise that since the election, nut jobs have come out of the wood work on to their computers to post-racial rants against Obama.

Post-racial

The act of blogging racist statements without feeling guilty. Or a type of blog that makes racist statements while trying to be ironic, and failing miserably. Often preceded with the statement, "I'm not trying to be racist but..."
