Structural Racism Explainer

The Autistic Self-Advocacy Network periodically makes plain-language videos explaining important topics, and they're always really good. They just uploaded a whole series on structural racism. If you need a basic but thorough primer on the subject for yourself or someone else, they're excellent. Besides being helpful for people with disabilities, they should also be a useful supplement for your kids if your local school district is trying to get rid of any mentions of racism in the curriculum. All the examples are US focused because ASAN is a US group, so it might not be much help to people in other countries, sorry.
