Level of Racism.

Institutionalized racism is illustrated by the initial separation of the seed into the two types of soil, the flower boxes which keep the soil separate, and the inaction in the face of need by the gardener who fails to fertilize or mix up the soils. Personally-mediated racism is exemplified when the gardener, viewing pink as inferior to red, plucks a pink blossom before it can even go to seed. Internalized racism is exemplified by a pink flower saying to an approaching bee, "Don't bring me any of that pink pollen - I prefer the red!" because the pink flower has internalized the belief that red is inherently better than pink.
