作者提出了一个从三个层面理解种族主义的理论框架：制度化、个人调解和内在化。该框架有助于提出有关健康结果中与种族相关的差异的基础的新假设，也有助于设计有效的干预措施来消除这些差异。然后，她提出了一个关于园丁的寓言，园丁有两个花箱、肥沃和贫瘠的土壤以及红色和粉红色的花朵。这个寓言说明了种族主义的三个层面之间的关系，并可能指导我们思考如何进行干预以减轻种族主义对健康的影响。它还可以作为启动关于种族主义的全国对话的工具。
The author presents a theoretic framework for understanding racism on 3 levels: institutionalized, personally mediated and internalized. This framework is useful for raising new hypotheses about the basis of race-associated differences in health outcomes, as well as for designing effective interventions to eliminate those differences.She then presents an allegory about a gardener with 2 flower boxes, rich and poor soil, and red and pink flowers. This allegory illustrates the relationship between the 3 levels of racism and may guide our thinking about how to intervene to mitigate the impacts of racism on health. It may also serve as a tool for starting a national conversation on racism.
