Introdução: Os impactos do racismo institucional no processo saúde-doença-cuidado são evidenciados nos diversos estudos epidemiológicos que demonstram as vulnerabilidades e iniquidades em saúde da população negra brasileira. Torna-se necessário estudar seus mecanismos e efeitos a fim de descrevê-lo como um problema a ser resolvido no âmbito da justiça racial. Objetivo: Compreender as percepções e ações de profissionais de saúde em relação ao racismo institucional na saúde de universitários(as) negros(as). Método: Estudo exploratório, descritivo, com abordagem qualitativa sobre o racismo institucional no
ambiente universitário. A população foi composta por profissionais de saúde dos Núcleos de Apoio ao Estudante e do Serviço de Saúde do Corpo Discente de uma universidade pública do estado de São Paulo. Resultados: Foram realizadas sete entrevistas com o uso de questionário semiestruturado. Utilizou-se a análise de conteúdo e três categorias emergiram: 1) Presença e ausência de Letramento Racial Crítico; 2) Prática de cuidado racializada versus universal; e 3) Racismo Institucional na vida universitária. As pessoas entrevistadas apresentaram percepções de consciência e letramento racial diversas que impactam na maneira como realizam as práticas de cuidado e no seu entendimento sobre o racismo institucional na vida de estudantes negros(as). Considerações finais: O racismo institucional pode ser combatido à medida que as pessoas nas instituições tenham a capacidade de reconhecê-lo. A ausência de letramento racial pode reproduzir o racismo vigente na sociedade.
Introduction: The impacts of institutional racism on the health-disease-care process are evidenced in several epidemiological studies that demonstrate the vulnerabilities and inequities in health of the Brazilian black population. It is necessary to study its mechanisms and effects in order to describe it as a problem to be solved in the context of racial justice.Objective: To understand the perceptions and actions of health professionals in relation to institutional racism in the health of black university students.Method: Exploratory, descriptive study with a qualitative approach to institutional racism in the university environment. The population was composed of health professionals from the Student Support Centers and the Student Health Service of a public university in the state of São Paulo. Results: Seven interviews were conducted using a semi-structured questionnaire. Content analysis was used and three categories emerged: 1) Presence and absence of Critical Racial Literacy; 2) Racialized versus universal care practice; and 3) Institutional Racism in university life. The people interviewed presented diverse perceptions of racial awareness and literacy that impact the way they carry out care practices and their understanding of institutional racism in the lives of black students. Final considerations: Institutional racism can be tackled to the extent that people in institutions have the ability to recognize it. The absence of racial literacy can reproduce the racism in force in society.
