Over 300 leaders in global health equity have gathered in Churchrock, New Mexico. We're excited to learn, build, and liberate with you! #SocialMedicineConsortium#SocMed2018
To the tune of Bob Marley's "Redemption Song," the conference concludes!
The global network of chapters has launched to kickoff the Campaign Against Racism, and we're humbled to liberate with such passionate forces for equity. Thank you and onward! #SocialMedicineConsortium

Thank you VP Nez for the warm welcome to Navajo Nation. We're grateful for your accompaniment, and for offering historical context as we dismantle systems of oppression together. #SocialMedicineConsortium
Awesome to be following along with #SocialMedicineConsortium after an amazing week at #AAFPLEAD. Definitely kindred spirits, and hope both can fit into next year’s master plan to achieve health equity!
