Discussing racism is challenging for nurse educators and nursing students, because White privilege and racial inequities are deeply embedded and normalized in our societal structures. Avoiding the topic of racism in nursing education renders White supremacy invisible and serves to perpetuate racial discrimination and disparities in health care. Nursing education has the potential to train both faculty and students to recognize and dismantle oppressive attitudes, structures, and practices that have led to negative health outcomes for patients. Equipping nurse educators with the tools to understand and address White supremacy as well as to educate themselves and their students about antiracist language, self-care, and patient care is an important step toward promoting health and creating an antiracist society.
讨论种族主义对于护理教育工作者和护理学生来说是具有挑战性的,因为白人特权和种族不平等在我们的社会结构中根深蒂固且被视为常态。在护理教育中回避种族主义问题会使白人至上主义变得不可见,并导致医疗保健中的种族歧视和差异持续存在。护理教育有可能培训教师和学生识别和消除导致患者健康结果不佳的压迫性态度、结构和做法。使护理教育工作者具备理解和解决白人至上主义的工具,并教育他们自己和学生关于反种族主义语言、自我保健和患者护理,是促进健康和创建反种族主义社会的重要一步。
