Join the Texas Organizing Project, or TOP for a conversation about the racial bias that still exists within the health care system and what we can do to help take racism out of health care! The system isn’t broken. It is working the way it was designed to work. For years now, we have heard about the poor access to medical care that Black and Brown families are subjected to. We talk about the price of healthcare and how unaffordable it is for black and brown communities. We also hear about maternal mortality cases increasing, particularly in communities of color, particularly with black women. But have you ever asked yourself why? How being black or brown puts us at a higher risk of being dismissed, incorrectly treated, or with a wrong diagnosis or even an incorrect prognosis, regardless of income. Serena Williams, a fantastic and world-renowned tennis player, almost joined this statistic when she gave birth to her daughter, Olympia. ***************************
