Antiracism can be defined as the practice of opposing racism and promoting racial equity and justice. Within health care, antiracism also includes acknowledging and addressing the structural injustices resulting in health inequities. Racism plays a role in how the United States accepts and welcomes refugees and asylum seekers. From an intersectional perspective, children are innately in positions of disadvantage, with unaccompanied immigrant minors (UIMs) experiencing an even greater toll due to the lack of direct parental physical care. This editorial discusses antiracist care of UIMs and the need for institutional and structural support to sustain this important clinical work.
反种族主义可以被定义为反对种族主义、促进种族平等和正义的行为。在医疗保健领域,反种族主义还包括承认和解决导致健康不平等的结构性不公正问题。种族主义在美国接纳和欢迎难民和寻求庇护者的方式中发挥了作用。从交叉的角度来看,儿童天生处于不利地位,无人陪伴的未成年移民(UIM)由于缺乏直接的父母身体照顾,因此受到更大的影响。这篇社论讨论了对 UIM 的反种族主义护理以及为维持这项重要临床工作而提供机构和结构支持的必要性。
