“The impact of racism has been linked to birth disparities and mental health problems in children and adolescents”

 

Have you experienced or been a participant in a racist act? Have you said, thought, received microaggressions?

Whether you have been the recipient or just witnessed the act, how did you feel? If you have NEVER been on the receiving end, then ask someone how they felt. Were you aware that among other impactions racism is linked to mental health problems? NOW think about groups of people who on a daily basis experience racism….what could this be doing to whole groups of people?? 

Write a two paragraph (5 sentence each) reflection on the papers you read on racism and health 

PAPERS ARE ATTACHED.
