A trip to the Whitney Plantation in Louisiana initially set out to serve as a history lesson between a daughter and father.

Who knew it would spark a movement after a photo of 15 black Tulane Medical Students went viral, an idea sparked by Dr. Russell Ledet, Co-Founder and President of what is now known as The 15 White Coats. 

Myself and Dr. Ledet have a therapy session the first hour of the pod where we discuss our frustration with being black in America over the past few weeks with the death of #GeorgeFloyd, #BreannaTaylor and other unfortunate deaths of black people at the bloody hands of police.

We then discuss how The 15 White Coats was created, its intended purpose and how it serves as a representation of inspiration and hope for the next generation of children to pursue medical careers.
