Despite increasing research on racial health inequities and better tools to measure racism's impact, public health lacks a concrete framework to address these disparities. To bridge this gap, this paper introduces Public Health Critical Race Praxis (PHCR), adapting Critical Race Theory for public health research. PHCR provides a structured approach to analyze contemporary racial issues, identify biases in current practices, and guide research towards achieving racial equity in health outcomes.

The number of studies targeting racial health inequities and the capabilities for measuring racism effects have grown substantially in recent years. Still, the need remains for a public health framework that moves beyond merely documenting disparities toward eliminating them. Critical Race Theory (CRT) has been the dominant influence on racial scholarship since the 1980s; however, its jurisprudential origins have, until now, limited its application to public health research. To improve the ease and fidelity with which health equity research applies CRT, this paper introduces the Public Health Critical Race praxis (PHCR). PHCR aids the study of contemporary racial phenomena, illuminates disciplinary conventions that may inadvertently reinforce social hierarchies and offers tools for racial equity approaches to knowledge production.
