Answer:

Yes, sadly.

Explanation:

There are about seven factors contributing to racism in the US today.  The first three factors are:

1. categories, which organize people into distinct groups;

2. factions, which trigger ingroup loyalty and intergroup competition; and

3. segregation, which hardens racist perceptions, preferences and beliefs.

Simply put, the US systematically constructs racial categories, places people inside of those categories, and segregates people on the basis of those categories.  For example, there is a considerable body of research showing that people, adults and children alike, tend to feel and act more positively toward those they consider to be like them and in their “ingroup.” This means that they are likely to treat people from outside of their social circles less favorably.

The remaining four factors the researchers argue contribute to American racism include:

4. hierarchy, which emboldens people to think, feel, and behave in racist ways;

5. power, which legislates racism on both micro and macro levels;

6. media, which legitimizes overrepresented and idealized representations of white Americans while marginalizing and minimizing people of color; and

7. passivism, such that overlooking or denying the existence of racism encourages others to do the same.

In short, they argue that the US positions and empowers some over others, reinforces those differences through biased media, and then leaves those disparities and media in place.  Of the seven factors identified, perhaps the most insidious is passivism or passive racism. This includes an apathy toward systems of racial advantage or denial that those systems even exist.

What strategies did both césar chávez and the ufwoc use to achieve their goals? how did they successfully apply these tactics?
docker41 [41]
Cesar Chavez and the United Farmer Workers used different forms of nonviolent protest in order to achieve their goals. For example, in 1965 workers who worked on grapes farm went on strike due to their poor pay and working conditions. This was known as the Delano grape strike. Along with strike, individuals also boycotted (aka refused to buy) the products. The goal in doing this would be to hurt the amount of profit individuals made of grapes. These tactics were used for 5 years, and resulted in a positive effect for the UFWOC, as they were able to gain their first written contract with the growers.
