The author focuses on the relationship between ageism and the health related disparities that exist for older minority populations as compared to older non-minority populations. The article also reviews how older minorities overcome some common stereotypes that potentially limit their access to a better quality of life and recommends ways by which ageism in minority populations can be counteracted on multiple social levels. The article is written from an American perspective.
