TedTalk and Talk Back: How Racism Makes Us Sick
Date: Tuesday February 8, 2022
(This event occurred in the past.)
Time: 11:30 AM
- Description:
Why does race matter so profoundly for health? David R. Williams developed a scale to measure the impact of discrimination on well-being, going beyond traditional measures like income and education to reveal how factors like implicit bias, residential segregation and negative stereotypes create and sustain inequality. In this eye-opening talk, Williams presents evidence for how racism is producing a rigged system -- and offers hopeful examples of programs across the US that are working to dismantle discrimination.
