Abstract
Despite notions of colour-blindness and denials of widespread systemic racism, anti-Black racism remains inherent in the political, economic, educational and healthcare systems in Europe. We use the Netherlands as a case study to explore some of these mechanisms. Here, we discuss how a focus on cultural deficiency and the denial of racism allows the bearers of inequality and inequity to be blamed for their own disenfranchisement. Nonetheless, scholars in the Netherlands continue to show how everyday racism is negatively impacting marginalized people's lives and their access to the social determinants of health and well-being in society.
