Racism vis-a-vis Biopsychosocial Systems

Abstract

The imposition of racism upon the human social environment is universal and extends to the behavioral norms of the total population. The ecological perspective is critical to understanding the function of biopsychosocial systems in a racist environment and the well-being of human organisms. Spurred on by self-preservation and a corrupted sense of humanity intermediate and tertiary race groups eventually tolerated and contributed to the prevalence of racism. The ability of humanity to purge itself can be accomplished by focusing upon the elimination of racism in toto. As the mainstay of oppression, said elimination will render all forms of discrimination moot and enable a more viable biopsychosocial environment for all.

Key Words:
