Racist society

Fifty years ago America was a racist society that implemented segregation among people of color. Webster defines racism as, “a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.” Though it is seemingly clear that we live in a post-racist society, racism has evolved with modern America.
