Abstract
ABSTRACT This article introduces epidemiology as a methodology for performing critical cultural studies and for excavating meaning in times of disparate global crises. I explore the interconnections between COVID-19, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine to examine the interconnections between health, colonialism and whiteness. I introduce the term “epidemiology of whiteness” to illustrate how whiteness functions as an unexamined privilege that directly impacts population health.
