    Explained below

    Explanation:

    1) Ethnocentrism is the belief one's race is superior to the other. It creates a divide in society based on the binary of "Us vs Them". Racism has been a part of colonial history that subjugates, discriminates and dominates over the people of a culture.

    2) Post Colonialism racism/ethnocentrism has seen a gradual decline. However, the extent to which it should have diminished is far from reality. It could be due to the long prejudice in our minds towards people of particular community, gender, color or sex.

    3) The recent outbreak of Corona Virus has led to huge discrimination against Asians as seen in different parts of the world.

    1-racism works by generating contempt or lack of acceptance of inequalities in the same ethnic group

    2-racism today is much debated and discussed in some areas has increased, in others it has decreased
