Defining Equity
Hosted by Defining Equity · EN
Defining Equity is a series that explores the intersection of public health and social justice through the perspectives of activists, artists, and health professionals. Each week, the show analyzes a different social issue by highlighting the activism work and personal experience of various activists. The personal is political and so we hope to make each issue a bit closer to our daily lives by telling the inspiring stories of our guests week-to-week.
