"Reparations as a Public Health Priority — A Strategy for Ending Black–White Health Disparities

The New England Journal of Medicine

There  has  not  been  a  single  year  since  the  founding  of  the United States when Black peo-ple in this country have not been sicker  and  died  younger  than  White people. A growing consen-sus  highlights  a  structural  basis  for  these  preventable  disparities  — structural racism — clarifying the  need  for  a  structural  solu-tion.  Black  reparations  are  one  such  solution  and,  we  believe,  a  long-overdue  approach  to  persis-tent  Black–White  health  dispari-ties in the United States.
