Welcome to Culture Shock Therapy, your health equity prescription. I'm your host, Dr. Katrina Gipson, guiding you through the complex headlines and policies shaping our lives. In this episode, we revisit the first presidential debate of 2024, focusing on former President Trump's controversial statements about immigrants taking Black and Hispanic jobs.
We delve into the historical context of employment discrimination, rooted in centuries of systemic racism, and explore the ongoing challenges faced by underrepresented minorities in the workforce. We'll also discuss the crucial role of diverse representation in healthcare and its impact on health outcomes for Black and Brown communities.
As we navigate these pressing issues, I encourage you to take actionable steps toward health equity, from civic engagement and voting to supporting underrepresented minorities in STEM careers. Join us in this critical conversation, and let's work together to create a more equitable future for all.
