individual racism

institutional racism

SOP. - -sche (discuss) 02:20, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

Agree, delete. --SanctMinimalicen (talk) 03:26, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

Doesn't the same apply to institutional racism, i.e. shouldn't it be deleted as well? -84.161.37.130 03:32, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

That's a good point. I'll add it. --SanctMinimalicen (talk) 03:36, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

Delete both. But @-sche, are you ok with adding institutional racism to your nom? Per utramque cavernam 09:16, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

I'm sorry--I should have asked first. We can definitely separate it out as a separate nom if you prefer, -sche. --SanctMinimalicen (talk) 13:21, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

It may have a bit more claim to idiomaticity than "individual racism" does, but it's fine to add it to this section—people who want to vote to delete one and keep the other can do that. - -sche (discuss) 16:52, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

Can't really believe that "individual racism" merits an entry. It's one of those hot/trending topics but that doesn't make it not SoP. Delete. (Probably "institutional racism" too but that's more arguable.) Equinox ◑ 20:12, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

Keep institutional racism - it is a term defined in the 1999 Lawrence report (UK) (though that wasn't the first usage). John Cross (talk) 10:09, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

"institutional racism" seems SOP to me - a quick google attests "institutional {sexism, ableism}" (perhaps by analogy), but also "institutional {indifference, failure, inertial}". But it's a sense of institutional we don't have defined yet. I'm going to attempt a definition, I'd appreciate more eyes on it. Jonathan Hall (talk) 21:03, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

Agree, delete both, sum of parts. Yurivict (talk) 16:12, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

Keep institutional racism, delete individual racism. bd2412 T 02:30, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

Delete individual racism, abstain on the other one. ←₰-→ Lingo ^Bingo _Dingo (talk) 13:30, 11 December 2018 (UTC)

There seems to be a consensus to delete individual racism; no consensus to delete institutional racism. Per utramque cavernam 22:38, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

@BD2412? Per utramque cavernam 18:31, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

I agree with that assessment of consensus, but prefer not to close a discussion that I have participated in unless it is clear that no one else is available and willing to do the close. bd2412 T 18:35, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

Weighing in late and adding my keep to "institutional" and delete to "individual", hopefully helping make things clear. - TheDaveRoss 18:38, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

Deleted as to individual racism, kept as to institutional racism; consensus is now clear. bd2412 T 11:51, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
