SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH AMONG AFRICAN-AMERICAN MEN

The Book

Social Determinants of Health among African-American Men was the first book to methodically address the impact of social factors, especially racial discrimination, on the health of African-American men. Moreover, it reframes the victim-blaming approach to Black men’s health, which unfairly portrays Black men as "'hard to reach’ with ‘poor help-seeking attitudes and behaviors.’” 

The Article

 "Social Determinants of Health among African-American Men" is a groundbreaking article that offers a comprehensive analysis of how various social factors - particularly racial discrimination - affect the health outcomes of African-American men. This work highlights the impact of these social determinants and challenges the prevailing victim-blaming explanation of racial health disparities. This narrative wrongfully categorizes Black men as "'hard to reach," oversimplifying the complexities of their health experiences. The article reframes this misdirected blame by drawing attention to the structural injustices that affect the well-being of this demographic.
