Video: How Structural Racism Works
In this video, Professor Tricia Rose explains the concept of structural racism and how it operates in the United States. Structural racism operates as an intentional construction in many spheres of society (housing, wealth, criminal justice, education, media, etc.) in ways that reinforce each other and intensify its impact on black and brown people in America. Addressing one issue in isolation, such as ending mass incarceration, will not solve all the interconnected issues of structural racism.
