Description
On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Dr. Valda Crowder examines Dr. King's unfinished work in healthcare equity. Drawing from his 1966 declaration that "injustice in health is the most shocking and inhumane," this episode explores how inequality, access, and systemic bias continue to shape American healthcare. Through listener calls, Dr. V addresses maternal mortality disparities, medical mistrust, geographic barriers to care, and the connection between economic and health justice in Black communities. The conversation asks: What would Dr. King challenge us to do today? Join the discussion about healthcare as a human right and the path toward true health equity.
