According to Omi & Winant (2014), the issue of racism in the US has continuously resulted in inequality, especially for minority races and groups. Racism is perpetrated mostly by the white community who view the minority races such as the Hispanic, Africans as illegal immigrants and foreigners. Despite the country boasting of elite people, Miller & Garran (2017) believes there is still a new form of racism being practiced in some cities such as Texas. The continuous racism practice in the country has motivated the study to investigate the effects such kind of racism has on the economy of a city like Texas, USA.
