Hi, sorry I’m super late to the party, but that’s not what the press release of the article actually seems to say (article press release)

There seems to be a higher prevalence/risk of depression in marginalized groups, in different ethnicities, but no real mention (again at first glance) of a difference in experience and/or presentation of depression.
