Edit: I had a comment ask for evidence based examples but deleted the comment before I had the chance to answer,. So, here is come examples. Note, some of these examples are before 2000, but I find that they still apply.
There are plenty more examples. Google Scholar and JSTOR are some great examples as to where to find some journals about it. JSTOR offers up to 6 free articles a month, I find it very useful for research at university.
Remember, being ignorant is a choice.
Edit 2: The wonderful u/theresamouseinmyhous shared this link about more history of institutional racism. There are 14 parts with the podcasts lasting roughly 45 minutes to an hour. Thanks for the suggestion!
What? No, because of institutional racism it often is not. You just linked to an article about black education and the effects institutional racism has on it. Many minorities affected by IR don't choose to be uneducated, they are pushed into it by IR.
Denying the existence of institutionalized racism based off your own personal feelings rather than the overwhelming facts that prove its existence is a choice dipshit. You know full well that is the context.
Even if that was the context, I just thought the statement was out of place because you clearly cited sources why being uneducated has often very little to do with personal choices.
Okay, yeah, that's very fair. Maybe I should have added more context because it does sound quite contradictory. Ignorant would have been a better choice.
