It is obvious to see that racism didn’t just produce itself with the emergence of capitalism. Humans all throughout history have been putting other races under their own in terms of power. It has been embedded into so many of society’s organizations because of the historical influence it has. According to the text, another point that I found to be sufficient to the idea of racism is this respect to the state. “In relation to racial and ethnic class struggles, the state has been consistently defined in an exclusively coercive, dominative and conspiratorial manner.” I quote this because I believe that Hall proves a point that racism has been educated throughout history into all of human’s institutions such as school, religion and family life. Racism isn’t just some made up human theory of injustice; it has been passed down from social institutions. So, this thought of the word state may be better put as culture because of racial tensions being culturally based and passed down.
