3 - Louis Penner on Health Disparities in America

Black and white Americans have vastly different experiences with the American healthcare system. Why? And how did this come to be?

Lou Penner, Ph.D., of the University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research addressed those and other questions in a recent presentation. Based on his book of the same name, "Unequal Health: Anti-Black Racism and the Threat to America's Health" explores the deep-rooted issues that led to today's healthcare inequities and the solutions that may exist to fix them.
