Kwate\u2019s study aims to address two unanswered questions confronting biomedical and behavioral researchers: What effect does racism have on the body, and what can society do about it?<\/p>\n

\u201cMost people don\u2019t think of racism as a social construct that affects health,\u201d says the trained clinical psychologist, who came to Rutgers last year from Columbia University. \u201cThey think of behaviors like diet, doctor visits, and the like, not so much about how the broader processes of inequality affect a person\u2019s ability to engage in healthy behaviors.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Health News – Rutgers Researcher Exploring Effects of Racism on Immune System<\/a><\/p>\n

I don’t want to quote the entire article but it is well worth the read. An excerpt:<\/p>\n

\n

The summer of 2010 found Kwate and her team biking through central Harlem in Manhattan and Bedford-Stuyvesant in Brooklyn, shooting videos with cameras mounted on the handlebars to document signs of institutional racism. They are now coding the videos to identify such features as the retail environment and the proliferation of vacant lots.<\/p>\n

The two predominantly African-American neighborhoods were chosen because they are similar in demographics and land-use characteristics. The researchers are interviewing a random sampling of 450 residents about their experiences with racism.<\/p>\n

The study will measure the respondants\u2019 immune system and metabolic function over two time points through physical tests.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
