The practice of opposing racism and working against racial discrimination and prejudice.
From anti- (against) + racism (discrimination based on race). This term became prominent in the 1960s-70s during civil rights movements. The -ism suffix indicates a practice, belief system, or movement.
Antiracism exploded into common usage in the 2020s, but the concept is older—the word shows how social movements name themselves by emphasizing active opposition rather than passive non-racism.
