Adding section on the experience of undocumented immigrants in the U.S.

Hello,

We are planning on adding a section on the experience of undocumented immigrants. We would like to include details on medical deportation, access to health insurance/services, and overall stress due to undocumented status. We would also propose moving the existing section on "Immigration Detention" within the new section of "Undocumented Immigrants".

Adding to the section on Xenophobia and Racism

We are planning on adding to and expanding upon the section on Xenophobia and Racism in the U.S. during COVID-19. Primarily we would like to expand on the definition and scope of xenophobia and racism, as well as provide greater context for the experiences of different marginalized groups during the pandemic. We would like to also add in more about the impacts of xenophobia and racism on these populations, particularly pertaining to the effects on mental and emotional wellbeing, health, and safety. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Megmcquillen (talkcontribs) 21:24, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Adding Section on mental health of indigenous individuals during the pandemic

Hello all,

We are planning to add more information under the racial disparities section, focusing on indigenous peoples and the effect the pandemic has had on their mental health. Thanks!

The pandemic had a massive social impact on all populations in the United States. There are some populations that faced greater difficulty from the pandemic and we have chosen to focus on indigenous populations in particular. We have noticed that there is a particular gap in information on the mental health of these individuals in indigenous populations and we hope to add to the page on social impact. From preliminary research, we found that in such communities “the loss of Elders is profoundly painful given their wisdom and status as cultural knowledge and language keepers.” We hope to create a curated list of calls to action/solutions that would help these indigenous populations post-pandemic, determine the specific health impacts, and offer a well-rounded perspective on the struggles of these isolated populations during such a vulnerable time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hallegill (talkcontribs) 21:44, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
