About the Event
The Center for the Study of Racism, Social Justice & Health at UCLA hosts a Distinguished Quarterly Speaker Series during each quarter of the academic year. For Winter 2023, we will host a dynamic panel discussion featuring several founding directors of Anti-Racism Centers across the country.
We invite you to join us for this panel - featuring Dr. Sharrelle Barber (Inaugural Director of the Ubuntu Center on Racism, Global Movements and Population Health Equity at Drexel University), Dr. Wendy Barrington (Inaugural Director of the Center for Anti-Racism and Community Health at The University of Washington), Dr. Melody Goodman (Founding Director of the Center for Anti-Racism, Social Justice and Public Health at NYU), and Dr. Rachel Hardeman (Founding Director of the Center for Antiracism Research for Health Equity at The University of Minnesota) - moderated by Dr. Chandra Ford (Founding Director of the Center for the Study of Racism, Social Justice & Health at UCLA), which will showcase several burgeoning centers dedicated to addressing the health implications of racism and will provide a forum for the center directors to be in conversation with one another. The goal is to establish a commitment across the centers to work collectively to address racism as a public health problem.
