Keith Allan Instagram – Posted @withregram • @amplify_purpose Today is Juneteenth, a holiday commemorating the day that all enslaved people in the United States were freed in 1865. This day may bring up a range of emotions for people, along with uncertainty about how to celebrate. In the context of mental health, the difference between equity and equality influences the ability to support people of all backgrounds, including those of the African American community and other racial or ethnic minority groups.
Research demonstrates the impacts of racial discrimination on healthcare and long-term well-being. Although Juneteenth marks only one day of the year, it’s an enduring reminder that racial equity is a historical and modern-day issue impacting all dimensions of human life.Â
