I like this definition of racism:
Racism is an ideological, structural and historic stratification process by which the population of European descent, through its individual and institutional distress patterns, intentionally has been able to sustain, to its own best advantage, the dynamic mechanics of upward or downward mobility (of fluid status assignment) to the general disadvantage of the population designated as non-white (on a global scale), using skin color, gender, class, ethnicity or nonwestern nationality as the main indexical criteria used for enforcing differential resource allocation decisions that contribute to decisive changes in relative racial standing in ways most favoring the populations designated as 'white.'

I don't think much of it.
The Center (I'm sure it's wonderful) must get paid per word, not per intelligent thought.
What is an "institutional distress pattern"?
Are mechanics which are "dynamic" beter or worse?
Is a "differential resource allocation decision" not just a choice?
It's just an attempt to pass off garbage as academic work.
