I still don’t understand why the use of racism in the description. It derives from the idea that race is actually a thing, and in a way it still promotes the idea. I would like to see a change for the much better and modern term “ethnicism”.
Race is a social concept. Race is a thing which exists. Gender is a social concept. Gender is a thing which exists. Race is based on ethnicity, but can’t be explained by it alone, gender is based on sex, but can’t be explained by it alone.

There is no racial distinction in biology. Our brains make up race, based on what we see and assume about people.
This should actually be pretty obvious because what counts as “white” as changed over the decades, as society changes.
