Summary: | "During times of crises, such as pandemics, natural disasters, global poverty, nationwide economic issues, and social justice upheavals, African Americans often encounter issues of systemic racism. Turbulent times for African Americans often lead to disparities in the areas of finances, housing, education, nutrition, health, employment, and the criminal justice system.Addressing Issues of Systemic Racism During Turbulent Times raises awareness of the obstacles of institutional racism encountered by African Americans during crucial times with the hopes of providing the needed support for individuals to navigate the systemic barriers. The publication also provides research-based information to create an awareness of issues of systemic racism encountered by African Americans during a time of crisis. Additionally, it focuses on how to create, cultivate, and maintain diversity, equity, and inclusion for marginalized populations. Covering key topics such as healthcare disparities and racial microaggressions, this book is crucial for community and civic organizations, government officials, policymakers, managers, sociologists, activists, academicians, researchers, and students."--Publisher's website. |
