Black, Indigenous and People of Colour face healthcare disparities in many forms, including in their experience of cancer. The reasons are complex and involve numerous economic, social and biological factors. This was the experience of Michelle Audoin, a Black woman diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer at age 40. Asked to decide whether or not she wanted reconstructive breast surgery, she could find no images of Black women to help her make an informed choice.  With the aim of raising awareness of the experiences of Black, Indigenous and People of Colour living with breast cancer, Michelle came up with the idea of Uncovered, A Breast Recognition Project, a resource created in collaboration with ReThink Breast Cancer, an organisation based in Canada.   Through powerful photographs and stories of BIPOC living with breast cancer, Uncovered seeks to shine a light on these inequities, and help educate all people about the unmet needs of the Black, Indigenous and People of Colour community.  We're speaking with Michelle Audoin, the creator of Uncovered, and MJ DeCoteau, Founder and Executive Director of Rethink Breast Cancer.
