    Racism takes many forms including individual, interpersonal, structural, and institutional racism. It exists due to factors like self-interest, failure to challenge racist beliefs, media representation, echo chambers, and quick judgements. Racism affects daily lives and occurs in communities, institutions, and through media. To address racism, individuals should make changes in their communities, promote minority rights, educate themselves, and address where racism takes place. Racism divides societies and increases violence, so concerted efforts are needed to end the belief that one race is superior to others and ensure equal opportunities and treatment.
