White supremacy

White supremacy is a set of beliefs that one group of people is better or more important than another group. This usually means that people who are white are superior to people who are not white. This means that white people may think they have the right to treat people differently because of their skin color or the place that they come from. White supremacists are people who believe in this set of beliefs and act on them in harmful and hurtful ways.
