• Cosas como el racismo están institucionalizadas. Puede que no conozcas a ningún intolerante. Te sientes como "bueno, yo no odio a los negros, así que no soy racista", pero te beneficias del racismo. Sólo por el mérito, el color de tu piel. Por las oportunidades que tienes, eres un privilegiado de maneras de las que quizá ni te des cuenta porque no te han privado de ciertas cosas. Tenemos que hablar de estas cosas para que cambien.

  Dave Chappelle

• Una de las crisis actuales de Estados Unidos es el racismo institucional. Tenemos un sistema de justicia penal muy roto. Vivimos en un país donde hay más gente en la cárcel que en ningún otro país del mundo. Actualmente hay unos 2,2 millones de personas encarceladas y son desproporcionadamente afroamericanos e hispanos. Afroamericanos desarmados han sido víctimas de abusos y a veces asesinados mientras estaban bajo custodia policial. Está claro que se trata de cuestiones que hay que abordar y cambiar.

• You should be able to criticize civil servants for what you think is wrongdoing without being painted as a cop-hater. I don't feel the police are all corrupt, however I do feel they are suffering from institutional racism and there needs to be a top-to-bottom examination of the way they practice and the way they criminalize young black and brown males. The fact that they seem to have backed off from it seems to suggest they realize they overreacted on me and it looks bad.

• There was no mistake in us making abortion legal and available on demand. That was what we call progress. Just like it was no mistake that we abolished institutional racism in this country around the same time. The easy thing to do is lay low, but then are we who we say we are? Do we actually stand for anything, if what we do stand for is under attack and we say nothing? There is nothing to be ashamed of here except to allow a radical and recessive group of people to bully and intimidate our mothers and sisters and daughters for exercising their right of choice.

• For most Black people there is still poverty and desperation. The Ghettos still exist, and the proportion of Blacks in prison is still much greater than Whites. Today, there is less overt racism, but the economic injustices create an "institutional racism" which exists even while more Blacks are in high places, such as Condoleeza Rice in Bush's Administration and Obama running for President.
