Health Affairs Briefing: Racism & Health Virtual Symposium – Feb 8

Posted by Health Affairs on February 8, 2022

Racism is the reason for large, sustained health inequities in the United States. The February 2022 issue of Health Affairs, “Racism & Health,” contains a comprehensive, scholarly look at the complex relationship between racism and health and provides new evidence, analysis, and narratives on the topic.

Join Health Affairs for a virtual symposium at which panels of distinguished authors and experts will present their work and engage in discussions on the historical context, evolving research practices and policies, and the lived experience of populations whose health has been harmed by individual and structural racism. A highlight of the event will be the reading of “Identity,” an original poem by Sharon Attipoe-Dorcoo, which will be published in the issue.

This event will take place on Tuesday, February 8, 2022, 2:00-5:00 PM.
