As a part of a larger, mixed-methods research study, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 21 adults with depressive symptoms to understand the role that past health care discrimination plays in shaping help-seeking for depression treatment and receiving preferred treatment modalities.

The importance of placing racism in a historical context is emphasized as are the differential reactions of white students and students of color to this material.
