Sometimes the hardest racism to spot is the kind aimed at ourselves-
when stereotypes about our own community start to feel true, and we begin to see ourselves through someone else's biased lens.

This is internalised racism.
Naming it is the first step to letting it go.

It's not one moment.
It's a pattern that builds over time.

Getting a job, a home, or good healthcare becomes consistently harder for the same communities- across systems that were never designed with everyone in mind.

This is structural, or systemic, racism.

A big thank you to Victoria Police for being part of this three-part conversation and for speaking so openly with our community.

Not all racism comes from what someone says or does. Sometimes it's built into the systems around us- a workplace rule, a school policy, a process that ends up treating people unfairly because of their race. This is institutional racism. No one person is to blame, but it's just as real.
