Chapter 3 - Physicians' Unconscious Racism
page 55
• It says that racism in healthcare raises the cost.
• One example is that a Black person would not be referred to a specialist when a White person would. That almost seems like a favor, but I'm saying that people become health professionals for fun. For instance, psychiatrists don't seem to know who to condemn. I've even been trapped by them. It's not safe, and people won't believe you it if you say you are not suggestively bad with your mental health, especially if a psychiatrist diagnosed you. Sometimes, if you see someone once, chances are next time your doctor will be more quick to diagnose you again, a psychiatrist.
