Manage episode 388916379 series 3493130
Dr. Christopher King is the inaugural Dean of Georgetown University’s School of Health and an associate professor whose work focuses on healthcare, public health, and racial justice. With over 20 years of experience in the healthcare sector, Dr. King is a nationally recognized speaker on achieving equitable systems of care.
In this episode, Dr. King helps me navigate the complex terrain of racial inequalities in healthcare. We dissect systemic racism's deep-seated roots, from institutional biases to the pressing crisis of maternal mortality among African American women. Dr. King takes me through history to understand how past injustices shape today’s healthcare landscape, especially in the context of COVID-19 and Washington, D.C. He brings forward groundbreaking strategies to dismantle these disparities, focusing on atonement, diversity in the medical workforce, and the crucial role of public awareness. We conclude with a forward-looking discussion on how philanthropy, technology, and AI might reshape the pursuit of racial equality in healthcare.
