The problem of racial health inequalities have been present since the beginning of the United States. The intersection of COVID 19 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement highlighted these longstanding racial health inequities. Yes, 53% of the nation in a recent survey do not believe that racism is a big problem, in the US. In this talk we will explore the issue of racism and health. We will make the case that racism is a serious problem that we should care about if we are serious about eliminating healthcare inequities. Examples of solutions will be discussed.
Learning Objectives: 1) understand the legacy of racism and other forms of exclusion on health outcomes 2) be able to name how these inequities are perpetuated today in health outcomes 3) Understand the three ways health care professionals can make a difference
