#10: Black Health History

Hey y’all! In this episode we’re celebrating the end of Black History Month with some Black health history stories. We’re giving you the scoop on Dr. Kizzmekia Corbett, the Black woman behind Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine; Harriet Tubman’s work in healthcare after freeing enslaved people; Dr. Rachel Hardeman, Dr. Elle Lett, and Dr. Lisa Bowleg, scholars in Black health equity; and Mercie’s great-grandpa, Robert McCants Harris, Sr – the first black male nurse at Grady Memorial Hospital!
