17 Equity

Her Royal Science

In this episode, we speak with Dr Stella Safo, a Harvard-educated physician and assistant professor of medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. We talk about the pervasive effects of racial and ethnic inequities in healthcare, and specifically, the way the COVID pandemic shone a light on the deep-seated racial inequities within American society. Importantly, we touch upon the true meaning of allyship, and the ways in which people in power need to use their voices to effect substantial and long-lasting social change.
