Race and ethnicity have major implications on health outcomes for people of color in America. Racial disparities have always been present, and the pandemic has put the inequity in stark view—from exposure on the job for lower-wage workers to lack of access to health care (especially PPE and vaccines) to the emergence of Long Covid. Join us for an expert discussion about how systemic inequities are affecting the health and wellbeing of marginalized communities and what we can do to address it.
