Description

The toll is shocking and ever present, from the daily stress of microaggressions to the fear of a violent encounter -- or witnessing one in person or on social media. Listen in as Amani Allen, PhD, MPH, executive associate dean of the UC Berkeley School of Public health, describes the many ways racism burdens health -- and the power in how we respond to that.     Related: https://www.webmd.com/coronavirus-in-context/video/jerome-adams (The discussion of racism and health starts at 5:26.)
