Welcoming Black Voices in the Suburbs
Dr. Nneka Sederstrom was Director of the Center for Ethics and Director of the Spiritual Care Department at Medstar Washington Hospital Center in Washington DC before coming to Children's Minnesota as Director of the Clinical Ethics Department. She earned her PhD in Medical Sociology, MPH in Global Health Management, and MA in Philosophy. She is widely published in Clinical Ethics and speaks regularly at national and international meetings.
Dr. Sederstrom loves to read (especially long epic fantasy series), dance, knit, and engage in all things crafty. She is the first African American woman bakery owner to use locally sourced ingredients in the state of Minnesota. She is the mother of Grayson, who happens to be a baby model, and Aadya, who may model one day. She is the wife to Charlie, the love of her life. Her favorite music is anything before 2005. Her favorite quote is “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” — Maya Angelou
Charlie Sederstrom is a registered nurse and the current clinical and technical trainer at Medica where, among other duties, he is helping to lead a health equity work group that is beginning to take a detailed look at how access to quality health care, and health literacy, can be improved across the region.
He, like many White people, is beginning to better understand the role he needs to play in recognizing, and then taking action against, racism in our community.
