Racism in form of belief in Racial hierarchies is the bane of Actionable public health!

APHA has laid out a goal of creating the healthiest nation in one generation. How will this enterprise align with that goal?

To create the healthiest nation in a generation will require a focus on prevention. When we are successful in making racism a thing of the past, and truly bringing an end to this legacy of a belief in racial hierarchy, we will, in fact, be contributing to the prevention of illness and the prevention of disease and moving us forward to being a much healthier nation.
