375 - Section on Racial and Ethnic Minorities Paper Session. Of Course They Wear White Coats: White Space in Healthcare, Implications for Education and Practice

Session Submission Type: Paper Session 100min

Description

Papers in this session will critically illuminate and interrogate the nature of white domination as it functions in creating and maintaining white space in health care, in order to better understand the training and practice of health care professionals. While papers may refer to the disparate health outcomes, the thrust of this work should cast the gaze upon the white power structures that enable racist pedagogy and practice. International/global perspectives are welcome!
