DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN BIGOT
AND RACIST
Key difference: The main difference between racist and bigot is
that fact that racism discriminates on the basis of race, whereas
a bigot discriminates on the basis of his personal opinion, which
can include race, gender, religion or beliefs.

SECTION 4
BIGOT
VS.
RACIST
A bigot is a person who is generally intolerant and hateful toward
people they consider different (in terms of race, religion, sexuality,
or in other ways).
A racist is a specific type of bigot—one who’s bigoted based on race.
The word racism often also refers to a system of oppression (systemic
racism) of people of color, and the word racist can refer to a person
who upholds or participates in such a system.

SECTION 5
ARE PREJUDICE
BIGOTRY, AND
RACISM THE
SAME THING?
No. And this is a HUGE source of misunderstanding.
Prejudice is when a person negatively pre-judges another person or
group without getting to know the beliefs, thoughts, and feelings
behind their words and actions. A person of any racial group can be
prejudiced towards a person of any other racial group. There is no
power dynamic involved.
Bigotry is stronger than prejudice, a more severe mindset and often
accompanied by discriminatory behavior. It’s arrogant and mean-spirited,
but requires neither systems nor power to engage in.
Racism is the system that allows the racial group that’s already in power
to retain power. Since arriving on U.S. soil white people have used their
power to create preferential access to survival rights and resources
(housing, education, jobs, voting, citizenship, food, health, legal
protection, etc.) for white people while simultaneously impeding people of
color’s access to these same rights and resources.Though “reverse racism”
is a term I sometimes hear, it has never existed in America. White people
are the only racial group to have ever established and retained power in
the United States.
Are prejudice, bigotry,
and racism the same thing?
