Racism is a public health crisis. From the increased rates of COVID-19 infections and deaths among Black and Latino populations, to the perpetually higher rates of violence and police brutality these communities face, it is clear that there are prevalent, persistent flaws in our nation’s structures that negatively impact determinants of health and outcomes. In this critical conversation, leaders in diversity, equity, and inclusion will discuss the systemic racism that exists within health care and, how it prevents us from achieving true health equity. These leaders will provide insights into how nurses as individuals can take actions to build a better future and support the public through our collective efforts.
