Thanks to @SoSowemimo for writing her book: profilebooks.com/work/divided/ Illustrated throughout with compelling story-telling, it makes the case with incisive evidence and history, the need to re-think healthcare for those from racially minoritised backgrounds.
Racism kills and climate change kills. NEW research by Race & Health and Colleagues exploring racial injustice, climate change, and health is now out in @TheLancet . Read this paper and register for our upcoming event featuring this work using the link in our bio.

🎧 Wonderful & engaging podcast on why history matters to the present & future of #globalhealth 🙏 @GarryAslanyan @JoyAgnost & Anne-Emmanuelle Birn #power #healthequity #decolonizeglobalhealth podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/glo…
#Haiti was the first country in the world to permanently abolish slavery & the slave trade. Haitians dealt a decisive blow to the entire system of slavery. Our ancestors became a threat to the existing world order. Haitian history is world history. Happy Haitian Heritage Month!🇭🇹
Promises to be an insightful event with @NaiduThirusha!

50% of global health leaders are nationals of just 2 countries - the UK and the U.S. @FifaRahman asks, how can we be sure they have a true understanding of the needs of communities around the world? #Decolonising #Access2Meds #GlobalHealth
Join our presentation and discussion to learn from researchers and students! 🌏 With Dr. Alyshia Gálvez, a medical and cultural anthropologist, and Dr. Jeremy Youde, a researcher in Global Health Politics, along with Master's students. eventbrite.se/e/decolonizing…

I'm proud of this one. I've concluded most global health people don't talk about justice cuz they actually don't know what it means or how to apply it to their work. Pandemic treaty is imp opp for justice. @khosla_rajat n I wrote to make some noise. . dx.doi.org/10.1136/bmjgh-…
EDCTP3 is a great example of an intentional initiative for equitable research partnerships. If you’re an #African or #European clinical researcher check them out during the info day or check online! They also support operational research for Health system strengthening.
"I often hear colleagues say that 'science is objective'. But that is simply not true. Even science is influenced by social contexts. And when much of our scientific understanding originates in deeply racist, colonialist contexts, we must challenge it." -@SoSowemimo in #Divided
