Rachel talks with Dr. Daniel Jacobson López, a Postdoc at the University of Pittsburgh who's work is centered on enhancing and developing trauma-informed, culturally-relevant and evidenced-based health care services for gay male sexual assault survivors of color. Dr. Jacobson López is also the first Latino PhD graduate from Pitt's School of Social Work and the first Chair of Diversity and Inclusion for Pitt's Postdoc Association. They discuss Danny’s experience being a part of a Zoom call with Latinx scholars that was "zoombombed" by a white supremacist. Danny shares about his research around the experiences of gay male sexual assault survivors of color and how racism and homophobia intersect in the ways these folks do or don't receive care and support in healthcare settings.

*This episode is marked explicit for discussion of sexual assault.*
