This series will contextualize the historical and systemic na ture of racism in America and how systemic racism impacts our health. As a concept that first emerged with European colonial expansion in the 16th century\, race is woven into the very fabric of American consciousness. It is insufficient and harmful to view racism as an isolated event\; doin g so invalidates the experiences of those afflicted by racism while perpe tuating the structures and systems that uphold racism.
