Jill interviews Dr. Camara Jones, a Family Physician, epidemiologist, renowned public speaker, and anti-racism activist. Dr. Jones shares her knowledge and insights about the impacts of systemic racism, both before and during COVID. In particular, she discusses the importance of realizing the systemic nature of racism (don't believe that racism is systemic? Just watch the video!), how to recognize your white privilege and use it for good. and how to LEAN IN to your discomfort about racism.
Dr. Jones is a family physician and epidemiologist whose work focuses on the impacts of racism on the health and well-being of the nation. She seeks to broaden the national health debate to include not only universal access to high quality health care, but also attention to the social determinants of health (including poverty) and the social determinants of equity (including racism).
