    Community Building, Advocacy, and Representing Our Own Interests with Reginald Ware

    Community Building, Advocacy, and Representing Our Own Interests with Reginald Ware

    With misinformation at an all-time high and representation mattering more than ever, it is imperative that we craft and control our own narratives--particularly around the health and wellness of our people. So, how do we build platforms that are truly for us, by us? 

    Dr. LeNoir is joined by Reginald “Reggie” Ware, Founder and CEO of BlackDoctor.org as they explore their path to building advocacy initiatives and the future of the healthcare media industry. 

    The Slave Health Deficit and Post-Traumatic Slavery Disorder with Dr. Rodney Hood

    The Slave Health Deficit and Post-Traumatic Slavery Disorder with Dr. Rodney Hood

    The history of Black people in this country is no great secret. While we know that slavery was never truly abolished-just renamed and reformed through Jim Crow, systemic racism, and oppression-are the health issues we face today a direct result of our slave descendency?


    Dr. LeNoir is joined by Dr. Rodney Hood, Internal Medicine Specialist, and the 101st President of the National Medical Association as they talk through a past that still has lingering effects and provide action steps for a better future.
