ABSTRACT
Coronavirus Disease 2019 disproportionately affects Black and Hispanic/Latino populations. Racial disparities inherently exist in dermatology because of underrepresentation of skin of color populations in literature, reduced access to care for minority populations, and low diversity within the specialty of dermatology itself. Lack of imagery in dermatology can have detrimental consequences for patients of color. Dermatologists should note and disseminate cutaneous manifestations of patients of color to combat current racial imbalances.
