racial unity

Cross-cultural human bonds

Racial unity is the ideal of harmony and solidarity among people of different races, emphasizing shared humanity over differences.

The phrase appears in calls for social cohesion and civil rights discourse: We must work toward racial unity.

It can sound aspirational or, to skeptics, naively idealistic—critics note it sometimes glosses over structural inequalities rather than addressing them.
