Summary:

"This book adopts both a historical and contemporary lens to understand the origins of the current health inequities crisis and underscore the urgent need to address the effects of systemic and structural racism on health. Evidence shows that interrelated social determinants of health, including voting rights, reproductive rights, legal reform, and health care access, individually and collectively impact health, underscoring the critical need for comprehensive frameworks, policies, and programs to address the root causes of health inequities"-- Provided by publisher.
