Almost 20 years ago, leaders in pain disparities research challenged pain scientists and clinicians to intervene and advocate for the elimination of inequitable pain treatment based on racialized identity39 (Table 1). However, despite significant efforts that led to the inclusion of pain disparities in national priorities, 34, 40 researchers continue to identify greater pain severity, worse pain outcomes, and disparate treatment for minoritized groups. 24, 65, 70 The persistent nature of racialized disparities in pain experience underscores the need for critical action to address this equitybased impasse, particularly amidst the current sociopolitical urgency toward justice and social change for racialized groups. 7 As part of this effort, the present review contends that pain disparities are most appropriately conceptualized from an injustice perspective within a larger interacting systems framework. To date, research has focused on the injustice experiences of individuals. However, overlooking the systems that maintain and perpetuate injustice has limited our understanding of disparity mechanisms and slowed paths toward intervention. In this article, we (1) provide a rationale for an injustice lens,(2) describe a model by which levels of injustice create and maintain pain disparities,(3) contextualize current knowledge of racialized pain disparities within this framework, and (4) discuss how this paradigmatic change shifts intervention priorities toward eliminating pain disparities. It is important to note that experiences with injustice are common and significant for most people with chronic pain15, 28, 96; these experiences are exacerbated for those exposed to multisystemic and intersectional injustice, 96,105 and the concepts proposed here should apply and be examined with respect to populations minoritized based on any aspect of their identity. However, to center the experiences of those most affected by injustice and disparate pain outcomes, 77 this review will highlight the racialized injustice experience of Black Americans to illustrate how multisystemic injustice disproportionately patterns pain burden across populations.
