Introduction This presentation will highlight the article "Large gaps in research on how common types of cancer affect Black people in Canada". This presentation will include a brief summary of the article followed by a critical analysis of it through the lens of course content. The article is taken from the “cbc.ca” news website, which was published on Feb 07, 2023, at 4:00 AM EST. This presentation will highlight the different components of the article. This presentation will also check the reliability of the source. It will also highlight the actions taken by different institutions regarding this issue. News article link: “https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/black-canadian-cancer-research-gap-ottawa-problem-1.6737797” 2. Definition of cancer and its impact on society Cancer is a disease where the cells, which are abnormal in nature, divide without any type of control and also invade the tissues in the nearby areas (National Cancer Institute, 2021). Cancer can have an adverse effect on the individual and have an impact at the societal level. Year after year, over 10 million people are diagnosed with the disease (American Cancer Society, 2022). Cancer lies in the second position in terms of being the cause of death for people all over the world. On the individual level, cancer affects both the physical and mental state of the person. The survivor of this disease may experience disfigurement in the physical state of the body. This causes the issue of a lack of self-esteem in the mind of the individual. 3. Summary of the Article The news article highlights the study conducted at the University of Ottawa's Interdisciplinary Centre. As per the study, there is a huge gap in research regarding how black people in Canada are affected by the common types of cancer. The study referenced in this article highlights different types of cancer, such as lung cancer, breast cancer and others, whose data collection, with a focus on the people from the black community, gets neglected. The study also pointed out that individuals from black communities are also less likely to voluntarily get their screening done for cancers. This results in late diagnosis giving them less chance of survival. This study also interviewed three people to gain their perspectives regarding this study. 4. The perspective of Interviewee 1 The article also consulted Mary Cénat, an associate professor at the university's school of psychology, who confirmed that there is a lack of research regarding this issue. Cénat also pointed out there is a disbalance in the screening process related to particular cancers which can negatively impact the black community in Canada. Cénat highlighted the steps taken by the US regarding this issue which led to the improvement in their healthcare guidelines. This led to modifying their system to screen out cancer in black women at the earliest stage. 5. The perspective of Interviewee 2 In the article, a spokesperson for the African Canadian Association of Ottawa, Godlove Ngwafusi, pointed out the ingrained fear of the system of healthcare among the black community. Ngwafusi further compared this fear with the fear of reporting crimes to police within the black community. Ngwafusi pointed out the negligence of the healthcare system in this case and stated it can negatively impact the black community. 6. The perspective of interviewee 3 Another guest in the article, Gwen Madiba, an associate of the “Black Canadian Homeless Foundation” and an NGO founder, recommends the creation of funds by the provisional and federal governments to tackle this issue. She compared this issue to a systemic issue. She showed her concern regarding the system and stated that the individuals should know more about the screening process. 7. CRAAP test of the article CRAAP helps in checking the reliability of the article by observing it with different criteria (Esparrago-Kalidas, 2021). CRAAP stands for “Currency”, “Relevance”, “Authority”, “Accuracy”, and “Purpose”. The publication date of the article is on Feb 07, 2023, at 4:00 AM EST. This lies within six months of the date of the presentation. Thus, the currency of this article is high. The study highlights the lack of research on that particular area of data collection in a certain community. Thus, showcasing the injustice in the community in the field of healthcare. Hence, the article is relevant as it shows an instance of social injustice. The author of the news article has many years of experience in writing. The study referenced in the article was conducted by a prominent institution, but in the news article, no proper data was provided. Also, there is no link in the article which routes to the main study. But the guests who contributed to the article were from prominent and relevant backgrounds. Thus, it can be stated that there is a certain authority in the article. The accuracy of the article is moderate as the news article itself doesn’t contain any quantitative or qualitative values that can give more details about the subject. It just referenced the study but didn’t include any figures. But the news article conducted three interviews who added their perspective regarding the subject. So, it is moderately accurate. The purpose of the article is to highlight the uneven structure of data collection related to Cancer patients. This makes it more reliable as a source for discussing Intersectionality and Putting the Pieces Together. 8. Social Determinants of Health The determinant of social health can be determined by certain criteria. These criteria are non-medical in nature but have an impact on the communities health status (Nutbeam & Lloyd, 2021)). These criteria involve the systems that influence daily life. Social determinants can be the places in which the individual is born and the culture around which the individual is subjected during their growing years and other criteria (Plan, W. A. F & Bursary,2022). In the article, it was highlighted that the culture and environment within the black community prevented them from conducting tests for cancer early in their life. This led to late diagnosis and less chance of tackling the issue. It also highlighted the fear inside the mind of the individuals in that particular community, which also disabled them to approach the healthcare system for their issues. 9. Racism in Healthcare The Canada Health Act (CHA) checks that Black peoples in Canada have access to high-quality healthcare that is on par with the rest of society. It outlines specific criteria and conditions that territories and provinces must meet in order to receive federal funding for insured health and extended healthcare services. This act ensures that all eligible residents of Canada, including the people from the black community, have reasonable access to prepaid health services without any direct updation at the time of service (Phillips et al., 2020). As Canadian citizens, people from the black community have the right to receive fair and unbiased healthcare services. But with the lack of research on cancer within the black community, individuals are being left out of some essential health services that can save them from harsh health problems. 10. Data Discrimination Data discrimination points to the systematic exclusion of certain groups from data collection and research (Gillis & Spiess, 2019). The lack of research on how common types of cancer affect Black people in Canada can be seen as an example of data discrimination, which can perpetuate health inequalities. Without a proper database regarding the health issues of a particular community, the issues related to that community may get overlooked. This may cause improper allocation of resources by the authorities. 11. Cultural Competency Cultural competency refers to the ability of healthcare providers to provide care that is sensitive and responsive to the cultural and linguistic needs of patients. Integrating proper cultural competency can help to plan, implement, and evaluate health education and can also help in promoting proper plans that respect the difference in cultures (Grenier, 2020). This is important in addressing racial disparities related to cancer screening and improving health outcomes for Black people in Canada. 12. Health Literacy Health literacy refers to the ability of individuals to access, understand, and use health information to make informed decisions about their health. As per the Public Health Agency of Canada, over 88% of Canadian old people are not literate regarding health issues and 60% of Canadian adults are not health literate (Vamos et al., 2020). Improvi...
