I don't know what you mean by describing it as "structurally racist". In the sense that it's viewing minorities as lesser? No. It obviously doesn't do that. It's just describing society the way we see it function. Regardless of the attitude of any individual, the structure of society is white supremacist. It's no different from saying "Someone telling you that the sky is green won't make you believe that the sky is green. It also won't prevent you from enjoying the view of the blue sky."
i'm asking if it can be described as such and what people think about doing so. Not really intending to describe anything more than necessary for articulating the questions.
Totally agree with this!
