Recently, I have seen attempts, primarily within the scholarly community, to redefine racism as being prejudice + institutional power = racism.
Personally, I think that racism is racism, whether it is espoused by a person of color or by a white person. I do believe in the concept of white privilege, but I don't think that racism is a game that only white people can play.
How do you think the term should be defined?
Here's a blog on the subject for some background: winterkoninkje. Why Racism Prejudice Institutionalized Power is wrong
