At the intersection of International Women’s Day & Black Hx Month I have to lift up my nearly 96 yo mom. It is on her shoulders I stand & at whose feet I still sit! She’s mothered, modeled & mentored! Here’s to you mom & all the other outstanding women!

It's tea time.

We need to take a strategic approach towards #equity, not just a haphazard approach. @DoctorWisdomMD says at #ARM22

[AcademyHealth @AcademyHealth]

We are now looking at how organizations can drive trauma-informed care, removing institutional barriers, and seeing the needle move through policy, practice, and partnerships.

[Kimberlydawn Wisdom @DoctorWisdomMD]

@RRHDr @PublicHealthUMN Rachel, this form of microagression has to be exhausting….even debilitating if stung enough time. I’m so sorry! I have found a quick-witted response can sometimes jar random ‘citizens’ into not perpetuating that form of harm.

[Kimberlydawn Wisdom @DoctorWisdomMD]

Landmark ‘Unequal Treatment Report’ set the stage 2 decades ago. The curtain has been raised higher clearly illuminating unacceptably profound & persistent disparities. Next Act: Advance expeditiously toward Destination Justice. @HenryFordHealth #disparities
