I Will Die Before You
Lace on Race Medical Disparities and Elijah Cummings I Will Die Before You Part 1 I have been both incredibly gratified, and incredibly activated, with the new focus on disparities in health care by the media. The conversation began bubbling up when Serena Williams almost died because of inadequate care when she birthed a child,…

Consider these Onboarding posts complimentary to our Relational Ethics series. While their function is to help newcomers acclimate, they will also be profitable for anyone in the space, regardless of time spent.

Relational Ethics Series: Introduction to Terry Real

Relational Ethics Series: On Being with Ruby Sales

Another audio from On Being, this time with Claudia Rankine. Again, read the transcript, but be sure to listen to the unedited version. I have found that most of the depth is in the unheard cuts.

Relational Ethics Series: On Being with de Button
We are starting with an audio from the On Being radio show. Read the transcript, but listen to the unedited version. This is, like most of what we will be presenting, done with romantic dyadic (two person) relationships in mind. But I feel deeply that the principles usually reserved for couples work well in our…
