Funded Activity Summary

Testing a new model for addressing covert racism faced by Indigenous youth . Racism is associated with poor mental health among Indigenous youth (14-25 years). Previous research has examined overt forms of racism but overlooked subtle and covert forms. This project is designed to provide crucial new knowledge on the forms, impacts, and interpersonal context of covert racism among Indigenous youth. We will adapt, to an Indigenous youth context, an international model of microaggressions (brief, daily acts of covert racism) which focuses on the impacts of racism on targets and the roles of non-Indigenous peoples in either sustaining or ameliorating racism. Expected outcomes will be a new model of covert racism to inform future racism research and interventions in Australia and among other First Nations peoples.
