Institutional racism may be described as a self-perpetuating and
opaque process where, either intentionally or unintentionally,
barriers and procedures which disadvantage ethnic minority groups
are supported and maintained. It is often the direct linkage and
thus the underlying cause for the lack of diversity and cultural
competency in the workplace. Yet institutional racism, as a
research topic, has been ignored by scholars because it forces
emphasis on the unseen and unspoken, yet culturally relevant
underpinnings of the workplace and societal ethos. Studies touching
on diversity in the public administration research often address
the subject as education and training - especially with regard to
the competencies needed by professional administrators. However,
racism and discrimination, as underlying factors, are seldom
addressed. Once specific examples of institutional racism have been
identified in an organization, change agents may take prescriptive
steps to address it directly and thus have a more cogent argument
for change.
