C ésar E. Chavez Institute SFSU Limitations of Views of Racism Bonilla-Silva Race is excluded from the foundation of society seen as individual acts. Racism is viewed at the psychological and therefore individual level. Racism is treated as static phenomena. Defining racism as idealist views racism as incorrect or irrational thinking. Thus a racists is irrational. Racism is understood as overt behavior. Racism is conceptualized as “original sin” and based in historical phenomena (slavery, capitalism). Does not view as contemporary.

C ésar E. Chavez Institute SFSU Views…Examples…. Racism System of power and privilege based on racial categories and phenotype.
