Abstract

Black Lives Matter is an activist movement which began as a hashtag (#BlackLivesMatter) after George Zimmerman was acquitted in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, an unarmed African American teenager killed in Florida in July 2013. Black Lives Matter has evolved into a global movement focused on ending systemic bias and structural inequality, and more recently focused on racism in medicine. As a journal that disseminates medical findings and information, we pledge to play our part in eliminating all forms of racism in science, medicine and medical publishing. As academics and scientists, we need to rise to resist injustice and to rebuild a future that is rooted in human rights and true equality. We must cherish the principles of equality, diversity, globalism, empathy and restorative justice, which have been the foundations of the Black Lives Matter Movement.
医学、科学和医学出版中的种族主义
2013年7月,乔治·齐默尔曼在佛罗里达州枪杀手无寸铁的非洲裔少年特雷沃恩·马丁后被判无罪,“黑人的生命也很重要”成为一项活动,以标签“#黑人的生命也很重要”开始。黑人的命也重要(Black Lives Matter)已经演变成一场全球性的运动,致力于结束系统性偏见和结构性不平等,最近又关注医学领域的种族主义。作为一份传播医学发现和信息的杂志,我们保证为消除科学、医学和医学出版领域的一切形式的种族主义发挥我们的作用。作为学者和科学家,我们需要奋起反抗不公正,重建一个以人权和真正平等为基础的未来。我们必须珍惜平等、多样性、全球主义、同理心和恢复性司法的原则,这些原则一直是“黑人的命也是命”运动的基础。
