Diversity, Race, and Health
Abstract
The events of 2020 threw into stark relief the long-standing inequities in healthcare and the disproportionate toll they exert on communities of color. We asked physicians and scientists to share their experiences in confronting and tackling health disparities, and their Voices highlight the need for concerted and widespread action.
