It is pointed out that it is possible to infer that this problem is not localized to the United States but rather, represents a global pandemic of focused prejudice. It can be viewed not only as an extremely serious and immediate public health problem, but also as genocide against a consistently invisibilized minority population. Concrete examples from the researchers’ field studies as well as from the published literature are provided. | Physical Description: | 34 p. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12389/21379 | ISSN: | 1540-2126 |
