The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on communities of color, highlighting the prevalence of structural racism in the United States. This collection of essays, written by leading scholars from various fields, explores the multifaceted ways in which the pandemic has affected Black, Latinx, and Indigenous communities, as well as our understanding of race relations in the country.
The pandemic has exposed the significant health inequalities that exist in the U.S., which the World Health Organization defines as avoidable and unfair. It has also brought to light the structural racism that exists in institutions, practices, values, customs, and policies, which allocate resources and opportunities differently among racial groups, leading to increased inequity.
Navarro and Hernandez argue that the COVID-19 pandemic has unleashed a race war in America, further marginalizing communities of color by limiting access to resources, particularly for women within these communities. Additionally, the systemic policies of the past that either upheld or failed to address the unequal social conditions affecting Blacks, Latinxs, and other minorities have been amplified by the pandemic.
The volume concludes with recommendations to prevent future humanitarian crises from exacerbating racial divisions and disproportionately impacting ethnic minorities. This timely volume will be of great interest to scholars, researchers, and policymakers who are interested in studying the intersection of race and the social impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States.
