Original Note:
This conflates "racist country" with "a country with racism." It is possible for significant numbers of voters to be racist and still have POC elected officials. Also, U.S. blacks have 37% less income than whites & less likely to own homes=systemically racist nation. https://www.prb.org/resources/who-votes-in-america/ https://www.pewresearch.org/2020/09/23/the-changing-racial-and-ethnic-composition-of-the-u-s-electorate/ https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/annual-report-shows-systemic-racism-continues-to-bring-down-black-peoples-quality-of-life
