Black people don’t like to go to the doctor. That’s something we’ve heard and experienced time and time again, and it doesn’t just come out of nowhere. There’s a deep history of medical trauma and mistrust in the Black community, and it makes total sense that Black people don’t want to go somewhere they don’t feel safe or seen. Today we’re talking with Dr. Rashawn Ray about the impacts of living in a racialized healthcare system.
