    AbstractRacism is an important determinant of health and health disparities, but few strategies have been successful in eliminating racial discrimination from medical practice. This article proposes a novel antiracist approach to clinical care that acknowledges the racism shaping the clinical encounter and historical arc of racial oppression embedded in health care. Although preliminary, this approach can be easily implemented into clinical care and may reduce the harm done by racism. It could also serve as a template for antiracist service provision in other sectors, such as education and law enforcement.Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
