Episode Two: Medical Racism Then and Now

Welcome to our second episode of “A Step Toward Justice.” This episode focuses on the origins and history of scientific and medical racism. To trace this history, Isabel Stephens examines several case studies, including the Tuskegee Syphilis Study, experiments performed on enslaved women by Dr. James Marion Sims, and more recent examples of medical racism through a discussion with Jacqueline Clardy-Josephs and a video posted to Facebook by Dr. Susan Moore. We hope you find this episode informative. Special thanks to Jacqueline Clardy-Josephs for her interview in this episode.
