Systemic Racism:In many ways “systemic racism” and “structural racism” are synonymous. If there is a difference between the terms, it can be said to exist in the fact that a structural racism analysis pays more attention to the historical, cultural and social psychological aspects of our currently racialized society.

It's social science. Terms and definitions tend to be sort of plastic.
Only if you need/want them to be.
