This session explores how bias—rooted in a long history of racial injustice—continues to shape healthcare today.
From the forced experimentation on Black bodies to present-day disparities in pain management, we’ll trace the legacy of systemic racism in medicine and its ongoing impact on trust, communication, and health outcomes.
Participants will examine how both personal and institutional biases influence patient care, particularly for Black women and birthing people.
Through real-world examples and guided reflection, this session invites healthcare professionals to move beyond the numbers and center the lived experiences and humanity of those most impacted.
