In 1–2 simple
sentences, analyze in what ways institutional racism exists today despite the equal protections guaranteed by the Civil Rights Act of 1964.(3 points)

Answer 1

Institutional racism persists today through systemic disparities in areas such as education, employment, housing, and criminal justice, where marginalized communities often face unequal treatment and outcomes despite the legal protections established by the Civil Rights Act of 1964. This is perpetuated by implicit biases, structural inequalities, and policies that disproportionately impact people of color, undermining the law's intent to ensure equality.
