Subtle racism is often hidden from sight and more difficult to prove, in contrast to overt

racism, which is more blatant. An example of overt racism is a public statement about

the "inferiority" of members of a racial or ethnic group. A more subtle form of racism

would be comments that attribute athletic ability to biological makeup and perceived

"natural" abilities.
