HISTORY OF RACISM IN THE UK AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF IT PEOPLE FACE TODAY
Abstract
The present research focuses on the aspect of racism affecting the lives of the people in UK. The presence of racism in the social structure of the UK is serving adverse effects in society. In many cases, it is observed that racism is resulting in the riots. The racism process also leads to the motivation of doing murders among the people of the United Kingdom. However, the problem in the present state is to identify the consequences that have been determining the racism process in society. A survey questionnaire methodology has been applied to survey 55 citizens living the country at that point of time when the research was conducted. The findings show clear results and currently, the government has highlighted that the problems as whole cannot be totally rubbed out but rules and regulation will be granted by the government to take control of the bitterness of the society.

Chapter 1: Introduction
1.0 Introduction
Racism is one of the phenomena, which is highly observed within the context of the United Kingdom. In that context, it is noticed that with the consequences of time and changes of the social structure the extent and the targets of the racist attitudes are changed. According to Bonnett (2018), therefore the history of racism in the social context of the UK is interlinked with the former colonies and citizens that comprised the British Empire. Furthermore, the history of racism in the social structure of the UK followed World War II. This process also strongly enhances the attitudes and norms that are entrenched in the class system of the British Government.
Within the discussion of this present dissertation, the researcher is showing the relationship between the histories of racism with the consequences that the people of the United Kingdom are facing in the present-day context of society. As opined by King-O’Riain (2019), in that context, the discussion of this research paper is presenting the ways through which the process of racism serves its negative impact on the society and the society people of the UK. The study of this paper is indicted by taking the present state of the consequences of the life of people in today's world based on the process of racism in the United Kingdom.
1.1 Background of the Study
In the current state of society, the reduction of racism is very important as it serves its adverse effects in the day-to-day life activities of the society people.

As argued by Kivel (2017), reports that are presented in terms of the history of racism in the UK analyses that the process of racism has its correlation with the different factors that are associated with the daily life cycle of society people. The activity that is correlated with the practices of racism is unemployment. Furthermore, Brexit also increases the racist incidents in the social structure of this country.

Chapter 2: Literature Review
2.0 Preface
This chapter throws light on the concept of racism. Racism is a degrading form of behavioural pattern where the human beings are being discriminated against based on their looks, caste and creed. This chapter tries to bring out the detailed discussion on the concept of racism, its types and its impacts on society. The chapter also shows some theories related to the concept of racism.
2.1 Concept of Racism
Racism refers to the discrimination done to human beings based on skin colour, ability, caste and creed. Racism is the showcase of the superiority of some particular sections of people based on their looks and race. It is a degrading human behavioural trail to deprive the other human beings of their basic rights based on their appearance. This world has seen a lot of racism in terms of skin colour. The people with black skin colour were deprived of their basic human rights only because of their complexion. Exploitation was the main reason concealed behind the superiority of the race. Racism has led to the rise of discriminatory practices around the world. People with fewer privileges were not allowed to seek proper justice. The laws and jurisdiction were against black people (Fanning, 2018).
The people were discriminated against on two bases, race and ethnicity. However, race and ethnicity are considered to be, completely different from each in the eyes of social science. The people have been found discriminating against each other not only based on the race but also based on ethnicity as well. The ancestral background posed a huge role in racism. The void of the rich culture and heritage in the ancestral background was treated as a shameful event back in those days. The people have not only been judged or discriminated by their colour but also a poor ancestral background was not given importance as well. In the old days, the racism was so high that the people from lower cases were not only given the privileges but also they were forbidden to touch the superior race. There have been many movements, which struggled to make things better for the lower castes and the black people. There was a huge movement, which led to the social awakening in the minds of the people regarding the untouchable. That movement was called apartheid. Apartheid was an effort to make sure that there is equality in the eyes of laws (Lewis and David, 2019).
2.2 Theories of Racism
2.2.1 The Psychological Theory of Racism
Racism refers to the differentiation of human beings based on their appearance or cultural practices. According to the psychological theory of racism, it has prices that a number of psychological factors are relevant in terms of racism. It is the psychological factors, which drive human beings to believe in certain narrow-minded thoughts. The belief of superiority on an irrelevant basis has been preconceived in the minds of the people for a long time. Human beings have been taught to judge others based on their outer appearance. Human beings are made to believe that whosoever is not thinking alike must be judged and discriminated against others.
Psychological racism does not end here. The idea of racism comes from the psychological pressure on human beings. Through the study, it can be deciphered that the psychological pressure comes from two things. The first thing that affects racism is a sense of insecurity. The sense of insecurity leads to discriminating against people. The sense of insecurity creates a sense of revenge in the minds of the people. The insecurity is generally created in the minds of the superior people. The fear of not being obeyed by the minor people leads them to impose the factors of exploitation on the people. Racism is a major manifestation of exploitation. The dominant tendency of the superior leads to the imposition of racism.
Another cause of racism is the sense of the minority. The psychological pressure of feeling minority in society is another reason for the acceptance of racism. Another contributing factor is the economic position or background of the people. The exploitation comes from the upper class to the middle class. Poor economic conditions lead to a sense of inferiority among the people. Racism is all about mind-sets. According to the theory of psychology in racism, it suggests that the perspective is the main reason behind the practices of discrimination.
The narrow perspectives of human beings are the main reasons for discriminating against them and judging against their outlooks and the behavioural pattern. The psychological factor gives birth to the prejudiced outlook that discriminates against human beings based on their looks, behavioural pattern, caste and creed. The psychological factor also creates a gap in the sentiments of the people about religious beliefs and they are practising. It conveys the feelings of the psychological hierarchy in the minds of the people. The psychological hierarchy is the reason for creating a dominance over the minority to display the supremacy of the privileged people.
2.2.2 Sociological Theory of Racism
Sociology plays a very important role in the practice of racism and discrimination. It is the societal pressure, which creates a sense of barriers in the minds of the people. Racism is nothing but the barriers created between human beings based on some futile reasons. Racism has been practised among the people for a long time back. The advent of racism started from the period when the white people had been cruel on the black people. The racism was not only based on the colour of the skin but also the random took place because of the economic and social practises as well. The rigid practices of the society in terms of caste and creed were the result of racism. The societal practices have been so deeply rooted that prejudice in terms of racism is being practised even today. The sociological theory of racism refers to the societal pressures and the practices that are relevant to the forms of racism. There are some evident laws in the society that bars people from doing things that they may like. The discrimination may be based on the caste, creed colour or even based on the gender of human beings.
The sociological pressure has acted as a justification method of slavery. Under the sociological view, slavery was also practised in some country. However, in those times, slavery was even considered as a form of racism because of the justification under societal pressure. Racism is largely based on the sociological perspectives of human beings. Human beings have a tendency of accepting the prejudices and the discrimination just because it is accepted by the majority in society. When the majority lies within the hands of the superiors, it is bound that racism and discrimination would take place. Avoiding the sociological justification, no theories of racism can be formed. It is also a game of perspective. The sociological pressure builds human beings to change their perspective even though the perspective may be wrong. To bring any form of change against exploitation and discrimination, it is very important to against societal pressure. Sociological pressure is like a trap house where the right-thinking people are trapped under the tag of generalisation. Theory of socialization often conflicts with the theory of modernisation. The sociological theory bounds to accept the practise even if they are wrong whereas the theory o modernisation helps the people to look through a different perspective and raise their voice against the discrimination (Bowser, 2017).
2.2.3 Biological Theory
Biological reasons are a great contributing factor towards the concepts of racism. Racism was first conceptualised with the idea of discrimination between white and black people. The white people thought themselves superior to the black people. This was the advent of racism in world history. The first reason for racism was biological factor. It is the biological factor that the certain sections of the people feel unwanted or left out because of their complexion or the looks. Although, the black and the people of colour are huge in number but their drawback was only their way of looking. Since the advent of racism, the biological factor has been infused in the minds of the people relating to the decimation based on the colour of the skin. It is only the white people, who are privileged and they are more likely to get all the advantages. Human race has been made to believe that the black people are not supposed to be given any kind of privileges.
The biological factor has led to the growth of the psychological pressure in the minds of the people. It is not only the dominant figures that are made to believe in the discrimination of the people based on colour but also the sufferers have accepted the fate of racism. Biological theory of racism proposes that the advent of the conceptualisation of racism has started from the dead of biological theory. Human beings with little deformation have been made to accept that they are inferior to others in terms of everything. Not only inferiority, the people with some kind of deformation are made to believe that they are not lucky enough to get any kind of privileges. The biological theory refers to the basic fundamental rights of human beings that have been hampered and snatched because of mere biological factors in human beings. The biological factor is a huge contributing factor to create a sense of inferiority in the minds of the people. Human beings have been made untouchables because of biological factors (Clarke, 2017).
2.3 Types of Racism
2.3.1 Individual Racism
This is the most common type of racism. This is the type of racism that most human beings are supposed to have. This is the common form of racism, which starts from within. This is the racism, which human beings follow through their own beliefs and cultures. The tendency of stereotyping other people based on their own cultures, social outlooks and beliefs are called individual racism. This kind of racism can be conscious or unconscious.
2.3.2 Interpersonal Racism
As the name suggests, interpersonal racism refers to the racism between individuals. It is not racism, which is concealed within oneself. This kind of racism comes between two people. When two people meet and their beliefs do not match, this kind of racism takes place. The difference of opinion, culture, social background and belief is the main reason behind the rise of interpersonal racism.
2.3.3 Cultural Racism
Cultural racism refers to the large scale of racism. Racism based on cultural practises is referred to as cultural racism. Cultural racism creates a societal barrier for a large section of the people. Through cultural racism, a large section of the people is kept out of the practises and a social distinction is created. The people are made to feel low while not belonging to the particular cultural practises. Other cultural practises are made to look down upon....
