That is, racism, both perceived and structural, is linked to critical, immediate, and long-term health factors such as low birth weight and infant mortality. Antiracism\u2014resistance to racism such as support for the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement\u2014has been linked to positive emotional, subjective, and mental health outcomes among adults and adolescents. To theoretically build on and integrate such past findings, the present research asked whether such advantageous health correlations might extend intergenerationally to infant outcomes? It examined a theoretical\/correlational process model in which mental and physical health indicators might be indirectly related to associations between antiracism and infant health outcomes. Analyses assessed county-level data that measured BLM support (indexed as volume of BLM marches) and infant outcomes from 2014 to 2020. As predicted, in the tested model, BLM support was negatively correlated with 1) low birth weight (\n \n N\n counties<\/jats:sub>\n <\/jats:italic>\n = 1,445) and 2) mortalities (\n \n N\n counties<\/jats:sub>\n <\/jats:italic>\n = 409) among African American infants. Given salient, intergroup, policy debates tied to antiracism, the present research also examined associations among White Americans. In the tested model, BLM marches were not meaningfully related to rates of low birth weight among White American infants (\n \n N\n counties<\/jats:sub>\n <\/jats:italic>\n = 2,930). However, BLM support was negatively related to mortalities among White American infants (\n \n N\n counties<\/jats:sub>\n <\/jats:italic>\n = 862). Analyses controlled for structural indicators of income inequality, implicit\/explicit bias, voting behavior, prior low birth weight\/infant mortality rates, and demographic characteristics. Theory\/applied implications of antiracism being linked to nonnegative and positive infant health associations tied to both marginalized and dominant social groups are discussed.\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.2320299121","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,1]],"date-time":"2024-04-01T15:04:10Z","timestamp":1711983850000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1073\/pnas.cm10313","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Antiracism and positive intergenerational (infant) outcomes: A county-level examination of low birth weight and infant mortality"],"prefix":"10.1073","volume":"121","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0008-3507","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tiffany N.","family":"Brannon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095-1563"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"341","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41390-022-02445-6"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clp.2008.09.004"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/pnasnexus\/pgad309"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.2109860118"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/713667453"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.1812068116"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.2109139118"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1467-9280.2007.02014.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_9_2","unstructured":"A.
