Event Description:
In celebration of Women’s History Month and International Women’s Day, join us for a presentation by Dr. Linda Rae Murray, an activist and national leader in community health and social justice in healthcare.
Her talk, "When White America Gets Pneumonia: COVID19 and Structural Racism," will examine the historical experience of American medicine with the concept of race, demonstrating how structural racism has resulted in significant gaps in mortality based on race and ethnicity. She will further examine the role structural racism has played in the differential impact of COVID-19 on people of color.
Dr. Murray will be introduced by Provost Peter Nwosu and Dean of the School of Health Sciences, Human Services, and Nursing Elgloria Harrison.
