We should difference between racism and victimizing here. I don't know which of these two is.
If the dress code apply for white and black kids I believe it's just victimizing and shaming racism.
If the dress code apply only for black or white kids then definetly it's racism.
It doesn't have to apply only for one group to be racism. Redlining was a practice that was technically about areas, not people, and there could be white people within those areas, but it's still racism. If the effects of a policy land disproportionately on one group or affect one group differently, like the shaving policy AllonzeeLV mentioned, where a frequency of shaving harms one group more than another, holding the group that will be harmed to a policy that harms them is racist.
Pretty accurate, if someone it's discriminated for any racial characteristic not just the skin color I believe it's racism too.
Anyway dress codes are dress codes it doesn't matter which race you are if there is a dress code to follow you should follow it.
Maybe we should talk about dresscodeism.
This dresscodeism is about regulating hairstyle and not clothing in this instance.
Oh then hairstylism hard to determine it, curly hair people can't hair style as straight hair people and viceversa, definetly it could be a problem but at the same time I would be more concerned about the education of the kids than their hair style tbh. What about if all the kids get their head shaved and problem solved?
You can have policies that equally apply to all people that are still racist. Same with sexist. If, for example, the dress code requires men to have a short list of approved haircuts, and all of them are styles that only work with a specific type of white hair, the policy is racist.
On the sexism side, if the policy is that everyone must wear an exact uniform, but that uniform doesn't fit wide hips or large chests, the policy is sexist.
