Everyday racism operates through marginalization, problematization, and repression of resistance.

Evidence

In my study, Understanding Everyday Racism (Essed, 1991), I found that expressions of racism in one particular situation are related to all other racist practices and can be reduced to three strands of everyday racism, interlocking as a triangle of mutually dependent processes: the marginalization of those identified as racially or ethnically different; the problematization of other cultures and identities; and symbolic or physical repression of (potential) resistance through humiliation or violence. Across and between everyday situations, from workplace to restaurant, from classroom to shopping, from house hunting to public transportation, and from watching television to staying in a hotel, racism operates through the characteristics of the specific situation and through the situational resources by means of which power can be expressed. — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 1481 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
