| | Defining Racism |
 | | Since laws prohibiting racism exist in many countries, courts charged with upholding these laws have had to decide on the legal definition of racism. | | | Expanding and diluting the term in an attempt to harness its potency to remedy a host of social ills appears to be behind much of the efforts to expand the definition. | | | Legal scholars in the United States define racism in two categories, or legal theories: |

| | Racism |
| | The mitigation of this by legal custom, which provided for slaves purchasing their freedom, is what racism eroded in many places in the South. | | | We must be clear, however, about just what racism is that would make it a moral issue. | | | An extraordinary judgment of Roman Law itself should be the final word on slavery: that although it was the "custom of nations," slavery was nevertheless "contrary to nature." A "natural law" jurisprudence would therefore rule out slavery as intrinsically unjust and illegal. |

| | Racism |
| | Private racism is not a legal, but a moral issue -- and can be fought only by private means, such as economic boycott or social ostracism. | | | Instead of fighting for "color-blindness" in social and economic issues, they are proclaiming that "color-blindness" is evil and that "color" should be made a primary consideration. | | | The absolute state is merely an institutionalized form of gang rule, regardless of which particular gang seizes power. |

| | Zionism and racism - encyclopedia article about Zionism and racism. |
| | The Soviet Union began the "Zionism is racism" campaign in the United Nations in response to United States proposals for UN resolutions against bigotry, which criticised the Soviet Union. | | | On November 10, 1975 the United Nations General Assembly adopted, by a vote of 72 to 35 (with 32 abstentions), Resolution 3379, which stated that "Zionism is a form of racism and racial discrimination." The resolution was revoked on 16 December 1991, with a vote of 111 to 25 (with 13 abstentions). | | | The meaning of the term Zionism was misrepresented to conform to a policy of the ruling Communist Party of the Soviet Union: "the main posits of modern Zionism are militant chauvinism, racism, anti-Communism and anti-Sovietism,... |

| | Racism and Capitalism - Does capitalism cause racism? |
| | Capitalism is a system of individual rights -- it is a necessary political condition to the banishment of racism, where it results in the violation of individual rights. | | | The only protection a man needs from racism is the protection of his rights -- specifically protection from the initiation of force, whether it be a knife held at ones throat by a Black Panther, or the noose held by a member of the KKK. | | | Under capitalism, the only form of judgment is the method of individualism -- judging each man as an individual, i.e., by the content of ones character, and not the color of his skin (ancestry) as racists like Jesse Jackson clamor for. |

| | Why Zionism Is Racism |
| | I believe that zionism is racism, because it espouses an independent and sovereign Jewish state, in a land where there is no Jewish majority. | | | I believe that zionism is racism, because in establishing the racially exclusive state of Israel, in 1948, and expelling the indigenous Palestinians from the land, the zionists severed a relationship that people had to the land for over 4,000 years, uninterrupted, since before Abraham. | | | I believe that zionism is racism because it self-propagates itself as a democratic movement. |

| | In case there's any doubt about just which party is the home of racism, one only has to look at the many ties between Republican party leaders and white supremacist groups. | | | Because racism defines nothing, but instead generates dubious connotations, the C of CC refuses to be held hostage by what the word implies at any given moment. | | | For there is no doubt that Dean's intention behind the remark was not racist; indeed, he said what he did in order to satirize the racism of the Republican Party. |

| | Some must lead and some must follow, and the question is only of degree and kind...Slavery is gone...but it will be an ill day for mankind if no one is compelled any more to obey those who are wiser than himself..." (23.) | | | Students will also examine this racism in the context of racism against other peoples. | | | W.E.B. Du Bois, founder of the NAACP, and the preeminent historian on slavery in the Americas, wrote: "Any attempt to consider the attitude of the English colonies toward the African slave-trade must be prefaced by a word as to the attitude of England herself and the development of the trade in her hands." |
