Racial violence refers to acts of aggression or harm directed at individuals or groups based on their race or ethnicity. This can include physical attacks, verbal abuse, and systemic discrimination. Such violence often stems from prejudice, stereotypes, and historical inequalities, leading to significant social and psychological impacts on affected communities. This type of violence can manifest in various forms, including hate crimes, mob violence, and police brutality. Organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center track incidents of racial violence to raise awareness and promote social justice. Addressing racial violence requires collective efforts to foster understanding and equality among diverse populations.
