Three Davids and One Kevin

Who do we turn to in a time of crisis? And why do those people always turn out to be so similar? Emergency-room physician Esther Choo, M.D. unpacks our cultural tendency to look to men—specifically, white men—as leaders, whether on TV, in medical institutions, and beyond. This is more than a fairness issue, she argues. It’s an issue of life and death. This is a must-listen episode with far-reaching implications for our current moment...and well beyond.
