Description
Oluwasina and co-authors examine in 2026 how racial discrimination links to deep depression among Black youths in Canada. The illness bears hard on young lives, yet its tie to unfair treatment in this group was not well measured. Over nine hundred Black youths answered an anonymous online survey.
A standard nine point form screened for signs of major depression. Youths who reported unfair treatment tied to skin color or race were many times more likely to screen positive than peers who did not. The team also weighed which background traits shaped exposure to unfair treatment. The results argue for action on both fronts.
