Race and racism are matters of urgent concern for the international nursing community. Recent global events have presented the discipline with an opportunity to generate and sustain long overdue discussions. However, with this opportunity comes a need to consciously attend to what we mean by race and racism, especially in the context of the nursing literature. Indeed, the development of antiracism depends on how we conceptualise race and racism; it is these conceptualisations that actively shape the scope and priorities of antiracist organising and action. The aim of this critical interpretative synthesis (CIS) is to examine conceptualisations of race and racism in the nursing literature by drawing on contemporary race scholarship. The synthesis of diverse literature is enabled through the explorative and expansive process of the CIS method. This review generates three synthesising arguments-a problem 'of' not 'for'; conceptual inconsistencies and drift; and reliance on the lens of experience-that both critique and contribute to the nursing literature. In the pursuit of antiracism, this article urges us to pay close attention to our conceptualisations of race and racism by illuminating the pitfalls that occur when our conceptualisations are inconsistent, contradictory, or simply neglected.
种族与种族主义是国际护理界迫切关注的问题。近期的全球事件为该学科提供了一个契机，以发起并持续进行早就该开展的讨论。然而，伴随着这个契机而来的是一种需要，即自觉关注我们所说的种族和种族主义的含义，尤其是在护理文献的背景下。事实上，反种族主义的发展取决于我们如何对种族和种族主义进行概念化；正是这些概念化积极地塑造了反种族主义组织和行动的范围及优先事项。这篇批判性解释性综述（CIS）的目的是通过借鉴当代种族学术研究来审视护理文献中对种族和种族主义的概念化。通过CIS方法的探索性和扩展性过程，实现了对各种文献的综合。这篇综述产生了三个综合论点——一个“属于”而非“针对”的问题；概念上的不一致和偏差；以及对经验视角的依赖——这些论点既对护理文献进行了批判，也为其做出了贡献。在追求反种族主义的过程中，本文敦促我们通过揭示当我们的概念化不一致、相互矛盾或被简单忽视时所出现的陷阱，来密切关注我们对种族和种族主义的概念化。
