Despite the equal protections guaranteed by the Civil Rights Act of 1964, institutional racism persists through systemic disparities in areas such as housing, education, and criminal justice, where policies and practices may inadvertently disadvantage marginalized communities. Additionally, factors like socioeconomic inequality, biased law enforcement practices, and unequal access to quality resources continue to reflect and reinforce racial hierarchies.
