As public health mourns the inequitable loss of lives to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and confronts other major social crises, practitioners must explicitly address systems of oppression in their everyday praxis. We describe how the principles of public health critical race praxis (PHCRP) and design justice (DJ) can advance equity in public health. We begin with an overview of PHCRP and DJ, and develop an integrated approach to facilitate community-led change. We apply this approach to the example of COVID-19 vaccine distribution and conclude with a call to action, arguing for PHCRP and DJ to become integral part of public health practice.
在公共卫生领域为2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）导致的不公平生命损失哀悼并应对其他重大社会危机之际，从业者必须在日常实践中明确应对压迫制度。我们描述了公共卫生批判种族实践（PHCRP）和设计正义（DJ）的原则如何促进公共卫生领域的公平。我们首先概述了PHCRP和DJ，并开发了一种综合方法来促进社区主导的变革。我们将这种方法应用于COVID-19疫苗分发的例子，并以行动呼吁作为结尾，主张PHCRP和DJ应成为公共卫生实践的组成部分。
