Racism is prejudice or violence against a person or group because of their skin color or ethnicity. It can entail microaggression, structural violence, and other forms of discrimination. Historically, it is tied to slavery and colonialism.

Anti-Racism, as explained by Ibram X. Kendi, is the commitment to actively oppose and dismantle racist actions, ideologies, and policies.
