Racial Equity

A state in which different racial groups have equal outcomes in areas such as test scores, income, arrests, etc.

It is often confused with racial equality and equal opportunity. However, achieving equity usually involves increasing or decreasing opportunities for some groups in order to obtain equal outcomes.
