Discrimination and racial disparities in health: evidence and needed research (2008, positive): “In segregated minority communities, health care facilities are more likely to close, pharmacies are less likely to be adequately stocked with medication, and residents are more likely to be treated by lower-quality physicians who are less able to refer to specialty care (Williams and Jackson 2005).”
Epigenetics and the embodiment of race: Developmental origins of US racial disparities in cardiovascular health (2009, background): “…as causes of ill health (Brondolo et al., 2003; Davidson et al., 2000; Dressler, 1991; Harrell et al., 2003; Jonas and Lando, 2000; Sweet et al., 2007; Troxel et al., 2003; Williams, 1999; Williams and Collins, 1995; Williams and Jackson, 2005; Williams and Neighbors, 2001; Wyatt et al., 2003).”

Psychological Perspectives on Pathways Linking Socioeconomic Status and Physical Health (2011, background): “These trends may be especially salient for the most historically disadvantaged groups, such as African Americans (Williams & Jackson 2005).”
Race, race-based discrimination, and health outcomes among African Americans.
