There is racism in Britain, but it’s not a systematically racist country that is “rigged” against non-white people. That’s the conclusion, published Wednesday, March 31, 2021 of an inquiry commissioned by the Conservative government in the wake of anti-racism protests across the country last year. Many ethnic-minority Britons greeted that claim with skepticism, saying the inquiry's 264-page report downplayed the discrimination and disadvantage they face. (AP Photo/Frank Augstein, File)
