Code WACK!

The lasting impact of racism in medicine


Listen Later

This time on Code WACK!

How did desegregation impact Black patients in America? What hasn't changed? What does racism in medicine look like today? And what should we do when we see it?

To break it down, we spoke to Dr. Barbara Berney, project creator and producer of the documentary "Power to Heal: Medicare and the Civil Rights Revolution." She's also an emeritus professor at City University of New York School of Public Health and a distinguished scholar in public health, environmental justice, and the U.S. healthcare system. This is the second of two episodes with Dr. Berney.
