- After the events of 2020, we are no strangers to stress and anxiety. But for Black and brown Americans, that stress was nothing new. Racial health gaps have always existed, and socioeconomics and racism within the medical system have long kept equal healthcare out of reach. But what kind of toll does the experience of racism itself have on your body? Glad You Asked host Christophe Haubursin wants to know.

AMERICA was built on racism & discrimination
Stolen native indigenous lands (country) built by enslaved humans....FACTS
You literally quoted an Asian American researcher for your report but didn't include any Asian Americans as a part of any of your sample data.
What would be the point? Asians are classified and lock step with anything “white..”
Actually in the education episode Asian data was included.
Ok, We need the research links
You guys should really put links to your research in the description. Considering how polished the rest of the channel is, I'm pretty amazed that you guys don't provide references
Actually, all white people are racists, and they only make others sick with their white privileges.
Citations in video description should always be there....
Yes
Wouldn't different economic groups have different stress levels? Would loved to have seen Asians in the mix to understand this better
They consistently said “controlling for income,” which means that they were comparing similar income groups to show that the differences could not be explained away by economic position.
Just want to remark that as an Asian (Chinese ancestry) in Australia, I've not experienced any kind racism after high school. It's nice.
Avoiding going to the hospital can also be a cause of having bigger issues, as when you finally get to the hospital you are normally past the stage of things getting fixed easily.
Yes
please adjust the statistics for income and education, not only race
All the props somehow feel gimmicky in this video
Can you hold your cameras still during interview shots? Watching the interview portion is making me sea-sick.
I'm a white passing hispanic and I've never once had a racist incident because of how I looked. I've never had a store owner look at me suspecting me of trying to shoplift or anything of the sorts. I can't say the same for the friends and family I have grown up with that didn't look like me
Do u want a cookie??
And of course Asians are forgotten
This isn’t surprising.
of course =/
Well what’s new🤷🏻♀️
They probably filmed this before Anti-Asian hate crimes became more televised... So I don't think I can say they forgot.. Also, the other episodes also focused on racism against African Americans.. Not really racism as a whole..
Probably because y'all are basically lumped in with the racist white people. I've met more racist Asians than anyone else. Doesn't matter what state or country and I've been to several.
interesting, I think diet is a big part of health. Also people subjected to stress may abuse drugs more.
I live in India and this whole season has been a ton of correlation, what black people suffer in USA it is almost the same that lower caste and schedule classes go through in india, but alas there are very few research going around all this in India
Yes, I think so. Also gender and colorism.
Have you seen Vices video on castes ? Im sorry this happens in India
Why are you trying to be trendy? The video editor had to edit you going to work on a subway, and had to green screen video onto the train...for what?
you cant actually be mad at that lmfao wtf
That sums up my life. “Acting white, Acting black” needs to go in this society.
I agree calling someone a race because of their values is racist. I prefer acting American with American values of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. With the freedoms of the individual. If you think that’s white then you are racist for attributing those values to skin color.
I think it's hard for most people to even acknowledge this to themselves. There's a reason the mind has defence mechanisms to avoid seeing the world as it really is
Have you ever thought, "that with ethnicity there is cultural traditions and genetics that is a big factor in age?"
This was timely. Important to point out how racism - the "system" part of it - has a word. It's called CAPITALISM. The capitalist system is a system exploitation of the working class by the ruling class, which weighs most heavily on the most vulnerable among the working class. Capitalist exploitation, whether based on race or other factors, is not a state of mind it has material impacts and this video does a good job of highlighting that - I just wish it would use more direct language so as to help demystify capitalist exploitation. Most importantly, it is important not to demonize those who fall for false consciousness but to make clear the actual power relations between the ruling/capitalist class and the rest of us who use public transport, go to public school, use public libraries, and shop at Wal-Mart.
i have respect for difference its the only way to stop discrimination we are all family
When people in vulnerable situation are exposed to lower quality education and end up in toxic work and family environments they get more stressed out. Simple as that. Just not so simple for the teacher's union.
Never ever ever believe there is no hope due to some invisible force. Never believe you can't do something because of the color of your skin and stop feeling insulted. All these elitists who tell poc's they're being discriminated against is racism by low expectations. So just stop falling into their racist game. Remember, they want people to fall into their game because they'll always vote how the elitists want you to because you'll continuously feel worst unless you just get over it. It's actually easier to get a job as a poc or woman over white males as long as they have similar qualifications.
I thought racism itself was sick
I got to say these "glad you asked" videos are exceptionally well researched and made. You put a lot of effort and work in there and one can definitely see it. And, as a non-American I have to say a huuuuuge thanks for putting subtitles on these videos in several languages (like my native german)! Thank you soo much for that!!
1:06 How is his voice so clear with that mask?? HOW??!!
He’s using a microphone
Depends on the fabric, or most likely a hidden mic
“Tons of similarities”
18:42
*You should be asking, is racism agitated by inequality?* e.g harassment from black and bullying from black to whites.
at around 14:00 i was about to call my dad too. but then i remembered we was in and how of jail for the first 5 years of my life than did some fucked shit and my mom left him when i was 6 or 7 and he hasn’t been in my life besides a phone call once a month since. so i was like “why am i about to call this man and apologize? he didn’t do anything.”
Does anyone else find the way they "create" graphs super gimmickey? Like, what was the point of using candles as graphs? Or sticky notes (which, additionally, didn't even work very well)? It distracts from the actual points.
Also, although I 100% believe most of the results of these studies, I feel like separating correlation from causation in a lot of these studies is very difficult. Of course more racist people are in the south, but that doesn't mean that the negative black medical outcomes are because of racism, but could very well be just because Republican lawmakers have shitty health policies in general.
I'm a researcher. I don't think you understand how research is done in science, especially in soft sciences. Most of scientific evidence IS based on correlational evidence. The reason is that conducting research in the real world can be difficult or unethical for controlled double blind studies. So even if we have no evidence for causation, correlational evidence can still provide insights for further investigation and used for prediction. Understand that dismissal of correlational evidence is a fallacy as much as assuming causative relationship exists with correlation.
The health despairity is also reflected in black and brown neighborhoods being food deserts. It is difficult to fight the chronic stress when you may be finding it also difficult to have access to the nutrients necessary to fortify your body. Look at black, indigenous Americans and Latinx communities how water quality is parceled out. These are the grotesque attacks of systematic racism, lack of clean water or decent food.
As a bi racial woman I find this all hilarious! My black side my dads family are all RACIST!! All they ever do is talking bad about white people. Acting like white people r the only racists in the world is a joke!!
Shoutout to the people who records these, it must take a lot of effort and time to make these.
It’s a multimillion dollar company so yeah I hope they put in some effort.
achoo*!
Lol
The mistreatment I face is becoming increasingly worse every day. Considering some want us dead, I wonder how wise it is to let them know the behavior is affecting us. It's not like they will feel bad and improve.
I'm a chinese born in Canada and lets just say since covid appeared peeps have not been the "nicest" :)...
wtf is this title honestly doesn't make much sense, gotta see the video
bruh I just watched like almost to the end and I just feel like they over analyzed the shit out of this. I feel like the numbers they got could be a complete coincidence, or it's true that the numbers show racism. but I'm not too serious about this stuff so yeahhhh I'm not butthurt or anything
I would appreciate if you could bring back the title sequence from season1
This was very nice man. Truly eye opening
I too, am sick of racism.
Super interesting question. Often you can see that people are afraid of what they don’t know. Maybe this is part of self defense, but we all will miss a lot of lifes beauty if we doesn’t open up to the world or something we don’t know about before.
We gotta flat out tell the racists, either you accept every person as equal. If not you can't participate in our society.
Don't have kids guys. The world is fucked up. Let's take care of each other before we think about bringing kids into this mess. Good day!
I have 2 and I regret 😭
@@aakashv5811 Horrible thing to say. This world is a mess but you should never feel this way about your children. Love and give them a good education. This is how we bring positive change to society.
@@aakashv5811 retirement home moment
Oh god. This was such an interesting perspective to take.
Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” ❤️👍
"Your age captures how long you have lived." Thanks, Captain Obvious.
May our hard times be healing times.
It’s depressing one time I wanted to quit knowing I work with people that hate me
I’m a latine that identifies as mixed with white and indigenous. We hate going to the doctor so we do brujeria and go to the curandero instead hahahaha magic does exist!
Sooo living longer doesnt hace anything to be with self-perceving health nor socioeconomic status...
This series is truly riviting. As a South African, seeing the overlaps between the experiences of fellow black people in America with those of us this side not only shows me that we indeed are even more similar than the media would have us believe but how widespread the nuances of racism and the horrific effects of it truly are.
So well researched. I love the details. This episode was truly eye opening and enlightening. Now, with the Asian racism, I do feel more stressed and not sleeping well. With that, I can see how Black and African American communities can have health affects from racism and mico aggressions on a daily basis. Wow.. just wow!! I mean I kinda understood before but this is more long term and devastating to one's life and health. We need to work together to stop this.
Glad im living in Nepal... black , white , brown , small eye , long nose , small height ( me ) , fat ( my bf ) ..... everyone
*"Unity in Diversity"*
That's Indonesia's motto
absolutely love these series. sharing with tons of ppl
Super interesting topics, well researched presentation and high quality production. But there is a weird vibe between the hosts and guests Every. Single. Episode. Even between the vox staffers themselves. There's something unreal about these interactions that makes the whole show seem inauthentic and robotic.
Beautiful series, satisfying intro music, basically the Grand Project Idea Pit because my brain is dying in school and I have like 8 topics in my overly empty head that just take turns
I love how you do visualize the data in so different and memorizable ways!
Wow
I'm enjoying this series but I'm confused by the different levels of adherence to covid safety measures. Indoors, some masks, handshakes or elbow taps. Maybe everyone has been tested before meeting?
Not surprised, a touch sad, but love the video and am looking forward to more!
Great video. Around 9:40 i started becoming seasick due to the camera sway. Please adjust this in the next videos.
In the head!😵 Yes!!
The visual effects are on point!
Also yes I did learn more about the systemic issues of race, this is very interesting.
Why does it feel like all these comments are from bots lol
Awesome.👍🏿
I’ve had customers look at me and not talk to me at work and it’s disgusting as I’m trying to help them and they just won’t acknowledge my presence
Is Racism Making People Sick? was a truly life changing production. I was blown away by the amazing production value and I truly think it is one of the movies of all time. The viewer is just taken aback with waves and waves of emotion that this movie generates. A bold showing on the theory and practice of collective oligarchies. A consumerist masterpiece that shows the function of a capitalist world built off of democracy. A work of art that has proven to be the pinnacle of human creation, pushing our minds to think at the greatest capacity. The beautifully written plot just has me at the edge of my seat for the whole runtime of this absolute masterpiece. One can tell that the director directed, the actors acted, and the editors edited. It was really a movie. As we speak I experience a morbillion emotions from all that this film has accomplished in plot, acting, effects, and everything one can ever think of. Everyone involved with this conveyed the amazing message of the theory and practice of collective oligarchies and put their best foot forward in ensuring the absolute top production quality and entertainment. This massive opening weekend alone just unleashed sheer spectacle onto our screens and the audience could only cry tears of joy as the protagonist shouted his famous phrase, “IT’S THERMIN TIME!” Nothing can compare to the therms that he thermed on this day of the opening almost-weekend. This production has simply put absorbed its audience into its absolutely masterful creation, and has established itself as one of the movies of all time.
*yes*
SERIOUSLY enjoying this VERY EDUCATIONAL series!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I would attribute it more to artificial scarcity created by pharmaceutical companies. What if they started charging $10,000 per shot, but made any racist moves illegal?
Then you’d have significant racial gaps with who is getting the vaccine because of the racial wealth gap.
@@Pantsinabucket Artificial scarcity creates a situation where you MUST choose. If you have 9 shots, but 10 people, how do you choose who doesn't get one?
You guys are doing really great with data journalism to convey message.
Great video and eye opening implications - living with the stress of racism leads to chronic problems
Appreciated for indonesian sub
I'm really glad you all made this video. This is an area that I wish was discussed more because it shows the true face of institutional racism in this country. As a medical student about to start my rotations, it's become more and more clear to me that race is a definite contributor to biases and mismanagement of diseases in people of color. More disheartening, it's seeing how racism makes building trust between people of color much harder. On a personal level, reading more about medical racism helped me start the journey of realizing that we still have racism in this country that needs to be dealt with.
9:00 what is this armature hour fucking camera shake, you're just moving back and forth so why not use a dolly or at least a gimble
I just want to clarify that I actually like this video it was just the extreme amount of camera shake that bothered me
pretty interesting video also good that it didn't insult any race and was worded very well
Excellent research🙌
The problem with our society is white women constantly complaining about discrimination despite effectively having all the same powers and perks of white men. We spend more effort collectively appeasing their demands which is energy that could be spent improving racial disparity. White women are the most outspoken yet privileged people in our society.
Well I can see that you hate white women,you black women think that you are better than us white women. Well you are not better black women are evil and cold hearter.
Well it’s making me sick.
Duh! People of color have already known this for centuries. Thanks for taking notice and quantifying our truth....
ok, the videos are good, but the titles are absolutely stupid.
I’ve been a victim of so much anti-Muslim hatred and islamophobia on the streets and on social media. When can this world change?
Also, cause I’m black as well.
I highly doubt it.
If you were white like Persians and Turks, then maybe you would have faced less problems. The Western World only cares about black or white. Some people are way too racist.
Almost first
Everyone is racist. Some way more then others. Don’t deny it.
Yes
Damn
I certainly know how it feels to be discriminated against. I have a rare severe chronic pain disorder and my health care has been a challenge, to say the least. Racism breaks my heart and it definitely effects me because I feel helpless. I just know that love is the answer.
Love the video
I am just curious, why are you not wearing masks.
I grew up in Hialeah/Miami as a white kid. I've seen it and I've felt it mainly bc of my economic situation and that I was part of that community. My nickname was Native bc I could go anywhere and it would be like I had always been there. Human rights for all! Healthcare, housing, food and water. We have one life it shouldn't be total shit bc of groups of ppl are complete assholes and spend their lives keeping ppl exaclty like them down.
*Bruh this video should be on Netflix or #1 UA-cam trending homepage cause i’ve never seen such a well researched flawless video about race in my life. Vox team need to pat themselves on the back for this* ❤️
Taking steps before they even leave home...
since literally slavery started. ♡
extremely extremely important conversations done so indepthly exploring inherent individual and micro communitarian impacts of macro statistics. Even that, done so sensitively. Great work honestly! Can't not love and appreciate even one work done so diligently by vox!
Second
Yes. Because it is stressing us BIPOC out so much and stress breaks down the immune system. You end up suffering from multiple health issues.
i love Vox materials but these video titles are such a bait for conservatives holy moly
Answer to your thumnail : yessssss🙏🏿
🙏🏿
This is a great series that my middle school aged daughter and I have appreciated.
But I have to say I'm concerned about the consistent lack of social distancing and mask-wearing across the series. Especially during in-person interviews. Vox has an opportunity to demonstrate following CDC guidelines.
THIS VIDEO ARE SOOOO NECESSARY...SPECIAL THANKS FROM BRAZIL 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷✌🏽💎
First
BORING
Good job!! You should go celebrate and treat yourself with something nice!
For once a person who is actually first lol
No shit *it is*
