| The term New Racism also urges us to pay more attention to all more or less covert manifestations of racism across the globe despite the advances of the civil rights era: For instance, in the context of the USA Eduardo Bonilla-Silva makes the point that "Color-Blind Racism" (purporting to be race neutral in words, policy, and action) is a new form of racism. This is associated with the view that “the past is the past” and that historical legacies creating and perpetuating disadvantage no longer need to be reckoned with. Bonilla-Silva includes the backlash against affirmative action as a part of color-blind racism — where people hide behind the notion that merit must dominate in selection, ignoring the fact that often the merits of a person of color are ignored or diminished because of the color of their skin. Hence people can draw (with varying degrees of consciousness) on the assumption of being color neutral while in effect operating to discriminate.

| Rodney Coates also explores new/covert racism in terms of the ways in which constructions of "race" continue to perpetuate economic, social, political, psychological, religious, ideological, and legal mechanisms of structured inequality.. Patricia Hill Collins in her book entitled Black Sexual Politics: African Americans, Gender and the New Racism (2004) explores new forms of racism by integrating sexuality in to her analysis. At the same time she looks across borders to view racism on a global scale (see http://www.asanet.org/footnotes/septoct08/collins.html). And Norma Romm in her book on New Racism (2010) writes about styles of researching different (and shifting) mutations of racism in a range of social contexts - including transnational patterns of racial disadvantage. She invites us to reflect upon ways in which the doing of research/inquiry - on the part of professionals and others - can itself create an impact in addressing issues of inequality and marginalisation - thus interrupting the dynamics of new racism at the moment of the research process . | |||
