Nice post. My wife read a really good book a while ago called The New Jim Crow, that talks a lot about the systematic institutionalization of minorities and how it has become the new way to segregate them. Very disturbing stuff. It is funny how people can look at facts without looking at the whole picture and not be able to piece together that something isn't right.

Denying the existence of institutional racism is a huge problem. As long as those with the power continue to believe and act as if racism is present only in isolated incidents, it's hard to imagine a solution. I have a black nephew who just turned fourteen. He's going into a traditional classroom for the first time this next year after being home schooled. This issue is really close to me right now.
