I find some of your arguments and explanations very persuasive. I took time to read the responses, which gave me a more balanced view. I find it strange that you are from the U.K. or have lived in the U.K. and can argue that institutional racism does not exist. For me, this is akin to saying that the class system does not exist in the U.K. I recommend watching the recent BBC series Small Axes or reading articles and books by Akala and David Olusoga. Academic and Government institutions have published endless surveys have about the disparity of treatments of those of Black African and Caribbean origins, in the health service, the prison system, the law, the police etc. Maybe. I am too close to this subject because of my personal experiences as a Blackman living in the U.K. I agree that people should think before accusing someone of being racist. However, countless surveys and pieces of research do not support your argument against institutional racism. Many researchers, including those who partook in the survey, have distanced themselves from its finding. The paper's author misled the participants or quoted their words out of context. The mere fact that report states the blacks should celebrate slavery because it bought them civilisation should make one question is conclusions. To assume that slavery brought civilisation to black Africans suggests that black Africans were savages, as Boris Johnson has intimated on several occasions with comments like black picaninnes. The recent disparities in deaths between blacks and whites relating to Covid is another example of the effects of institutional racism. Also, people should be careful about branding statements like institutional racism does exist. It is akin to blaming its victims as fabricating their experiences.
