What do you call the unequal treatment when comparing a racial or ethnic minority to a non-minority?

  1. Values

  2. Disparity

The correct answer is: Disparity

Disparity refers to the unequal treatment or outcomes when comparing a racial or ethnic minority to a non-minority. This term is often used to describe the differences in access to resources, opportunities, or treatment based on a person's race or ethnicity. In contrast, the other options do not specifically address the unequal treatment between racial or ethnic minorities and non-minorities.
