Abstract

This story explores the intersection of intergenerational trauma, healthcare discrimination, and racial bias in medicine through the lens of the Akani family. It looks at the complexities of patient-provider communication and the impact of historical medical mistreatment on Black Americans' healthcare-seeking behaviours. The narrative weaves together themes of family dynamics, cultural beliefs, and the struggle for adequate medical care, highlighting the persistent challenges faced by marginalised communities in the healthcare system.
