Racial segregation

Racial segregation is a kind of formalized or institutionalized discrimination on the basis of race. It is characterized by the races' separation from each other when both are doing equal tasks, such as eating in a restaurant. However, segregation often allows close contact in hierarchical situations, such as when a person of one race is working as a servant for the member of another race. Segregation can involve spatial separation of the races, and/or the use of different institutions, such as schools by different races. See also: racism.
