#MinorityHealthMonth is a time to discuss the health and wellbeing of racial and ethnic minority communities. While we are not where we want to be, we also are not where we used to be. I want to be intentional about spotlighting #healthequitywins

This panel on "Eradicating Ageism" has been extremely insightful. We as a society have to do a much better job of caring for our elders. Our medical advancements show that we value longer life spans but we fail to support the elderly effectively #healthequity #healthequitysummit

"I was taught that there were three biological races—Mongoloid, Caucasoid, Negroid—in New Orleans in the 1990s in medical school. So if I was taught those things, that means there are a lot of providers that have a lot to unlearn." @doccrearperry #HealthEquity #Unlearn #Racism
