Summary
The Counter-Narrative show discussed social determinants of health among marginalized populations with Dr. Jeanette Wade, a black feminist medical sociologist. Dr. Wade highlighted the impact of social determinants on health outcomes, citing examples like fast food density and income disparities. She emphasized the importance of centering race and gender in health studies, noting that black women face significant health disparities due to systemic racism and gender oppression. Dr. Wade's research on the "Superwoman schema" revealed that black women often prioritize others' needs over their own, leading to poor health behaviors. She advocated for community-based interventions and called for white allies to address racial biases in healthcare.
