为了理解非洲裔美国人癌症危机的原因,必须分析当代关于黑人癌症的神话和认知差距,并将其置于历史背景中。自古以来,种族主义就渗透到西方的科学、医学和社会文化中。然而,当代分析师通常将370年的非裔美国人健康赤字框定在非种族方面,忽视了种族主义的变形以及种族主义对癌症预防,诊断和治疗的影响;暴露于致癌工业污染物;黑人卫生专业人员和政策制定者的教育机会,以及其他因素。如果非裔美国人的癌症危机要得到遏制,那么迫切的需求和用于预防、检测和治疗黑人癌症的微薄资源之间的差距就必须急剧扭转。
To appreciate the causes of the African-American cancer crisis, contemporary myths and perceptual gaps regarding cancer in blacks must be analyzed and placed in historical context. Since ancient times, racism has permeated western scientific, medical, and social cultures. Yet contemporary analysts typically frame a 370-year-old African-American health deficit in nonracial terms, and ignore both the metamorphosis of racism and the impact of racism on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer; exposure to cancer-causing industrial pollutants; educational opportunities for black health professionals and policymakers, and other factors. If the African-American cancer crisis is to be halted, the growing divergence between urgent needs and meager resources devoted to preventing, detecting, and treating cancer in blacks must be sharply reversed.
