Racism is a health problem"that takes a toll on people of color and contributes to the development of other chronic diseases," according to doctors studying health inequities.
Structural racism causes emotional and mental harm, said Dr. Aletha Maybank during a panel discussion Thursday sponsored by the American Medical Association. Maybank is the association's chief health equity officer and vice president.
Marya discussed some preliminary results from a study she's part of on police violence and said no one is untouched by it."What we did see, and I'll share it, is that everyone was traumatized, all races, by witnessing and experiencing police violence, with black and brown people having the most intense impacts to their health, but everyone is traumatized by this violence," Marya said.
