Black Men in White Coats Film Screening
2021-02-26 09:00 - 2021-03-02 23:45 (America/New_York) | MD
Join us as we watch and then discuss Black Men in White Coats, a new documentary from Dr. Dale Okorodudu.

Black Men in White Coats Viewing Flyer

Register with an email address to receive an emailed code to watch the film. You can watch the film on any device with an internet connection at any time between February 26 and March 2: https://www.indiescreening.com/…/black-men-in-white…

Fewer black men applied to medical school in 2014 than in 1978 and black men have the lowest life expectancy in the United States. With only 2% of American doctors being black men, this comes as no surprise. This documentary dissects the systemic barriers preventing black men from becoming medical doctors and the consequences on society at large.

Health care accounts for nearly 20% of the United State’s GDP and a significant portion of that is driven by disparities in a system that lacks diverse physicians. What if we had a medical workforce that actually reflected our patient population? What challenges do our black boys face? Who are their role models? Why is it easier to visualize a black man in an orange jumpsuit than it is in a white coat? What’s happening in society that more black women are becoming doctors while black men are stagnant?

This film screening was funded by the Friends of the St. Mary’s County Library.

The Power of US: What Happens When Historical Narratives Are Corrected

Please click here to REGISTER FOR THIS WEBINAR
The history we teach has evolved over time and the reason is simple, we have changed. With those changes come a responsibility to explore what history can teach us about the current state of affairs. When that history is incomplete, or deliberately leaves out elements of conflict, we fail to get an accurate view that causes far more harm than good. As a public historian, Coleman feels her job is to lay out stories you may not have considered or heard before and provide an environment where people can learn and explore.

Harriet Tubman is the most famous conductor of the Underground Railroad, and while many of us know she spent her early years in Dorchester County on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, there is much more to her life. Discover the importance and influence that faith, family, community, and the landscape had on one of the most formidable women in American history.
FREE WEBINAR for the public – The Boeing Company has generously sponsored the Speaker Series at Sotterley for the past 13 years. Advance registration required.
