    Structural Racism and Health Disparities: Reconfiguring the Social Determinants of Health Framework to Include the Root Cause.Ruqaiijah Yearby - 2020 - Journal of Law, Medicine and Ethics 48 (3):518-526.
    The government recognizes that social factors cause racial inequalities in access to resources and opportunities that result in racial health disparities. However, this recognition fails to acknowledge the root cause of these racial inequalities: structural racism. As a result, racial health disparities persist.

    Involuntary Consent: Conditioning Access to Health Care on Participation in Clinical Trials.Ruqaiijah A. Yearby - 2016 - Journal of Law, Medicine and Ethics 44 (3):445-461.
    American bioethics has served as a safety net for the rich and powerful, often failing to protect minorities and the economically disadvantaged. For example, minorities and the economically disadvantaged are often unduly influenced into participating in clinical trials that promise monetary gain or access to health care. This is a violation of the bioethical principle of “respect for persons,” which requires that informed consent for participation in clinical trials is voluntary and free of undue influence. Promises of access to health (...)

    The Social Determinants of Health, Health Disparities, and Health Justice.Ruqaiijah Yearby - 2022 - Journal of Law, Medicine and Ethics 50 (4):641-649.
    Although the federal government and several state governments have recognized that structural discrimination limits less privileged groups’ ability to be healthy, the measures adopted to eliminate health disparities do not address structural discrimination. Historical and modern-day structural discrimination in employment has limited racial and ethnic minority individuals’ economic conditions by segregating them to low wage jobs that lack benefits, which has been associated with health disparities. Health justice provides a community-driven approach to transform the government’s efforts to eliminate health disparities, (...)

    INTRODUCTION: What is Health Justice?Lindsay F. Wiley, Ruqaiijah Yearby, Brietta R. Clark & Seema Mohapatra - 2022 - Journal of Law, Medicine and Ethics 50 (4):636-640.
    Health justice is both a community-led movement for power building and transformational change and a community-oriented framework for health law scholarship. Health justice is distinguished by a distinctively social ethic of care that reframes the relationship between health care, public health, and the social determinants of health, and names subordination as the root cause of health inequities.
