Anti-Asian racism and violence dramatically increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, recent studies and reports are showing that the health and well-being of Asian Americans are negatively affected. To address this urgent problem, the field of health education and public health must be equipped with the critical frameworks and concepts to analyze racism and White supremacy and how it affects the health and well-being of Asian Americans. We argue that using an ethnic studies lens in health education can help educators, researchers, and practitioners teach and train health educators to address racism experienced by Asian Americans during COVID-19 in relation to their health. We will discuss the elements of ethnic studies and demonstrate how to use it as a lens in understanding health disparities in the Asian American population influenced and exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
在 COVID-19 大流行期间，反亚裔种族主义和暴力事件急剧增加。因此，最近的研究和报告表明，亚裔美国人的健康和福祉受到负面影响。为了解决这个紧迫的问题，健康教育和公共卫生领域必须具备分析种族主义和白人至上主义的关键框架和概念，以及它们如何影响亚裔美国人的健康和福祉。我们认为，在健康教育中使用民族研究视角可以帮助教育者、研究人员和从业者教导和培训健康教育者，以解决与 COVID-19 相关的亚裔美国人所经历的种族主义问题，以及这些种族主义问题如何影响他们的健康。我们将讨论民族研究的要素，并展示如何将其作为一个视角来理解受 COVID-19 大流行影响和加剧的亚裔美国人人口中的健康差距。
