The correct answer is True
Racism is a crime and any type of prejudice based on the idea of the existence of race superiority, expressions of hatred, aversion and discrimination that spread segregation, coercion, aggression, intimidation, defamation or exposure of a person or group is qualified by law, subject to punishment as a violation of human rights.
Discrimination refers to the act of making a distinction. Racism is a particular case of discrimination in which the individual, due to the physical characteristics that determine his race, may undergo different treatments that interfere with his social and economic opportunities, or place him as a target of segregation. Any thought or attitude of separation by race is classified as racism.
It is important to differentiate race from ethnicity. A person's race is expressed by visible, that is, physical characteristics, such as skin tone, skull and face formation, and hair type. In ethnicity, in addition to physical characteristics, other aspects such as culture, nationality, tribal affiliation, religion, language and traditions are considered, which fall into other classifications when subject to discrimination, but are treated equally under the law.
