Mental health professionals are aware of the negative impact of racism on patients' mental health, but are uncertain about the best path forward. By acknowledging individual and structural racism, and taking anti-racist actions, mental health equity can be achieved. Collaboration in the mental health field is necessary to prevent history from repeating itself.
With a growing understanding of how racism negatively affects the mental health of patients, mental health professionals are as anxious to act as they are uncertain about the best path forward. This uncertainty persists even though thoughtful, actionable antiracist recommendations in psychiatry were made 50 years ago. Mental health professionals can take several antiracist actions, including acknowledging individual and structural racism through an examination of racist policies, to achieve mental health equity. The mental health field must take these actions collectively so that history does not continue to repeat itself.
