While increasing opportunities for certain groups (A) may be an attempt to address past discrimination, it does not necessarily indicate the presence of institutional racism. Institutional practices based on democratic ideals (B) and explicitly inclusive ideals (D) may be positive, but they do not necessarily indicate the absence of institutional racism.
