Racial exclusion persists through institutions while personal relations integrate

Evidence

Race serves as invisible border line demarcating both who formally belongs or not and what can or cannot be said about it. The border line is inscribed not at the level of personal relation, of social and sexual intercourse or the excitement of avant-garde aesthetic expression, but in the crevices of political divides and formal relations of power, of institutional access and full membership in the polity, of educational standards and citizenship requirements. Nonracialism squeezing out any possibility of antiracism. — David Theo Goldberg, The Threat of Race, 909
