Less black men applied to medical school in 2014 than in 1978. Black men have the lowest life expectancy in the United States. Currently, only 2% of American doctors are black men. What's going on? And, why aren't these numbers better? This educational session is in two parts. First, access to watch the documentary "Black Men in White Coats". The film runs 1 hour 20 minutes and participants will be provided a link to watch the movie at their convenience. The second part of this presentation is a live virtual panel discussion on Tuesday, September 14 from noon-1pm. Panel members will speak about their experience from medical school to residency to practicing physicians. A recording of the session will be made available to those who cannot tune in to the live session. Hear the conversation. Hear the real-life stories. Hear a perspective you may have never heard before.
