This is Play It Forward. Real people. Real stories. The struggle to Play It Forward Episode 420 with Yance Ford and Dr. Hetty Cunningham from The Color Of Care.
The Color of Care traces the origins of racial health disparities to practices that began during slavery in the U.S. and continue today. Using moving testimony from those who lost loved ones to COVID-19 and frontline medical workers in overwhelmed hospitals, expert interviews and powerful data, the film exposes the devastating toll of racism that is embedded in our healthcare system.
In addition, The Color of Care will launch a robust impact campaign that activates medical and nursing schools, healthcare workers, policymakers, and impacted communities to advance solutions toward health equity. The campaign will also engage Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), to further empower all communities to take note of this national health crisis and take actions toward ending it.
