The Gold Initiative: Racism & its Impact on Medicine
Listen now
Description
In the first episode, four Gold Humanism Honor Society (GHHS) representatives discuss the 2020 GHHS National Initiative, Humanism and Healing: Structural racism and its Impact on Medicine, designed to encourage GHHS members to use their leadership roles to start or extend conversations about racism and its impact on medicine/healthcare in their local communities and beyond, to create space for grieving, processing, and bearing witness around this topic, or to take action in one of many powerful ways that humanism can begin to heal. Join podcast host/producer and GHHS chapter advisor Dr. Hellen Ransom, GHHS members and fourth-year medical students Enioluwafe Ojo and Candice Passerella, and Gold Foundation staff member & GHHS Director Louisa Tvito in this thought-provoking first episode. The Gold Humanism Honor Society has more than 150 chapters in medical schools around the globe. Created in 2002 by The Arnold P. Gold Foundation, a nonprofit organization that champions the human connection in healthcare, GHHS now has more than 35,000 members, including medical students, physicians, and other healthcare leaders.
