Race scholars have discussed how the pandemic has disproportionately burdened marginalized communities and exacerbated pre-existing inequities, particularly for Black Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) in the United States (U.S.). One glaring social determinant during the time of the COVID-19 is racial discrimination. This chapter will discuss lessons learned regarding the negative impact of discrimination on BIPOC, especially as it pertains to their experiences of trauma. Some of these lessons include (1) the need for clinical psychologist to improve access to treatment through increased research on culturally adaptive interventions, (2) increased research on the effects of race-based trauma on mental health symptomatology, (3) policy and institutional changes that reduce disparities in access to care, and (4) increased education for psychologists around billing procedures for individuals with race-based stress.
种族学者讨论了这场大流行是如何不成比例地给边缘化社区带来负担，并加剧了先前存在的不平等现象，尤其是在美国对黑人和原住民有色人种（BIPOC）的影响。在 COVID-19 期间，一个明显的社会决定因素是种族歧视。本章将讨论有关歧视对 BIPOC 产生负面影响的经验教训，特别是因为它涉及到他们的创伤经历。其中一些经验教训包括：（1）临床心理学家需要通过增加对文化适应干预措施的研究来改善治疗的可及性；（2）增加关于基于种族的创伤对心理健康症状影响的研究；（3）减少医疗保健机会差距的政策和体制变革；（4）增加心理学家对基于种族的压力患者计费程序的教育。
