Racial Inequities: COVID-19 has essentially ripped the cover off of some of the deepest cracks in our current healthcare system

This is episode 35, "Racial Inequities: COVID-19 has essentially ripped the cover off of some of the deepest cracks in our current healthcare system."

My guest, Dr. Ashley Duhon, is a recent New Orleans area medical school graduate.

Over the past four years of medical school, she has been active with Students for a National Health Program, also known as SNaHP, on the local and national levels. She co-founded the SNaHP chapter at her medical school and has held national leadership positions within SNaHP, serving on the National Board for the 2019-2020 academic year.

Most recently, she has worked on a campaign alongside a coalition of progressive organizations in New Orleans resulting in the unanimous passage of a resolution in support of Medicare for All by the New Orleans City Council.

In July, Dr. Duhon will begin her residency in OB/GYN in the Bronx borough of New York.
