Medical Racism. Why Mistrust in Healthcare is Justified.For generations, Black and Brown communities have been told to "trust the system"—but what happens when that very system has failed them time and time again?
From the Tuskegee Syphilis Study to modern-day disparities in diagnosis, treatment, and pain management, the mistrust many people of color feel toward the healthcare system is not paranoia. It’s pain rooted in history, bias, and lived experience.
In this eye-opening video, we break down:
-The historical traumas that shaped medical mistrust
Ongoing racial bias in diagnosis and care
Why healthcare access isn’t always healthcare equity
How medical gaslighting leaves patients unheard and untreated
Whether you’ve experienced this firsthand or want to better understand it, this conversation is necessary—and overdue.

Welcome to Our Channel | The MultiCultural MindSet with Dr. LaVerne Hanes Collins 🧠✨
At The MultiCultural MindSet, we are committed to reshaping mental health conversations through a multi-cultural, intersectional, and decolonized lens. As mental health professionals, we recognize that traditional therapy models often fail to address the unique experiences of marginalized communities, especially African Americans and other racialized groups affected by societal racism.
I’m Dr. LaVerne Hanes Collins, and I am passionate about decolonizing therapy and providing counselor training that challenges outdated, Eurocentric frameworks. Our content is designed to educate, empower, and transform the way we think about mental health, healing, and inclusivity in counseling.
What We Offer on This Channel:
✅ Multi-cultural mental health discussions designed for therapists, counselors, and individuals seeking culturally affirming healing
✅ Decolonizing therapy—breaking free from rigid, Western-centered models of mental health care
✅ Counseling African Americans—addressing the impact of societal racism and intergenerational trauma in mental wellness
✅ Counselor training & professional development—helping mental health professionals integrate intersectionality and inclusivity in counseling
✅ Explaining decolonization—how historical oppression shapes today’s mental health practices and what we can do to challenge it
✅ Fostering inclusivity in mental health spaces—because healing should reflect diverse lived experiences
✅ Real conversations, expert insights, and community-centered approaches to mental wellness
If you are a mental health professional, student, advocate, or someone seeking healing from a decolonized perspective, we invite you to join this journey with us. Together, we can create a more inclusive, just, and culturally responsive approach to mental health care.
👉 Subscribe now and be part of this transformative movement toward healing, justice, and liberation in mental health!
