At a time when the world is calling for #equality, we join our voices to the millions of people across the globe to highlight the need to embrace our diversity. Covid19 has exposed the level of inequality in medical research, as ethnic minorities are more likely to die of Covid than their white counterparts. Nowhere is this inequality more glaring than in the United States were "black people simply are not receiving the same quality of health care that their white counterparts receive".

With the foregoing in mind, the hosts, Drs Belhabib and Okafor-Yarwood share their personal experiences to highlight the imperative for us to embrace diversity in medical research, in our work places and daily lives. Thank you for listening.
