Race, Inequality, and COVID-19 Lecture

What is the cause of the racial disparities seen in COVID-19 infections and death rates? Do these patterns reflect group level biological or behavioral differences or structural inequalities? How can we develop innovative solutions that will make us a better, healthier, and more just society now and in the future? Join this lecture with Dr. Kesha Moore.
