Description

Jeevan Toor and Jossee Lavoie scanned reports of racism in health care for Inuit in a 2026 paper. Race has no basis in science, yet racism still shapes who gets care and how, for Indigenous peoples around the world and for Inuit in Canada. Community members had raised clear worries about unfair treatment in clinics and hospitals.

No past work had gathered current Inuit accounts of racism in care in one place. The pair searched the record for such accounts and sorted what they found. Their scan gives scholars, policy makers, and Inuit groups a shared base. From it, steps to make care fair can be planned and checked.
