Many Black medical workers are now finding themselves on the front
lines of two epidemics -- Covid 19 and systemic racism.  We’ll
talk with a panel of African American medical professionals at
different levels of their careers who are writing and 
reflecting on their roles during this time. “My brown skin is
protected by blue scrubs, by a hospital ID that says “Stanford,”
and “MEDICAL STUDENT” in big blue letters,” writes Dasha Savage, “
The black gunshot wound patients I meet in the trauma bay don’t
have that luxury.” We’ll talk with Savage and participants in
Stanford's Writing Medicine program about race, the medical system
and how they are processing the events of today.
