Black disabled people's experiences of ableism and medical racism in healthcare: A scoping review

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to review existing literature on Black and disabled peoples’ experiences of medical racism. The research was requested by the Disability Justice Network of Ontario (DJNO), an organization that advocates for disabled individuals in Ontario and aims to make Ontario more accessible. DJNO was interested in the extent to which medical racism and ableism shapes the experiences and health outcomes of Black disabled individuals.
