Prompt: Consider the idea of “institutional discrimination,” which is described in your text as a form of discrimination that is embedded in the way social institutions function, regardless of whether or not the actors involved are personally prejudiced or intend to commit discriminatory actions. Do you think racism is a problem of personal prejudice or institutional discrimination? Why?
