This struck me as well. Systemic racism means (to me) that if you took the people out of the system, you'd still get biased outcomes based on race. In my view, it's a different matter to say that a system produces biased results because it is designed to do so, rather than it is systemic because the people operating it make biased choices where their discretion is called on.
Are there actual, current examples of systemic racism where an entirely non-racist staff would still produce racially-based biased outcomes?
