Shohat and Stam explore ideas of racism in Unthinking Eurocentrism and state that racism doesn’t trek effortlessly and indifferent throughout the course of time as history references racism as “positional, relational and means that diverse groups have occupied the functional slot of the oppressed.”[9] This continues to be the reality in Hollywood as “racism is above all a social relation – systematized hierarchization implacably pursued… anchored in material structures and embedded in historical configurations of power.”[10] Historically, as mentioned by Shohat and Stam, they link the correlation between racism and that it is the consequence of colonialism. However, although it’s not definitively connected, due to the colonial past it is a durable attribute to racism.
