For further information, please refer to: Terminology can change over time and, where possible, it is best practice to find out what the preferred term is from the respective Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander group or individual you are referring to. For further guidance, please see the Australian Government Style Guide |

Institutional vs systemic racism
editThere is a fair amount of literature discussing the differences between institutional racism and systemic racism and the way the two terms get used differently. I'm wondering if this Wikipedia article would benefit from acknowledging this. ViaGalactica (talk) 01:40, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
