In Solidarity: Connecting Power, Place and Health

Introducing In Solidarity: Connecting Power, Place and Health

Welcome to the launch of In Solidarity: Connecting Power, Place and Health. In this debut episode, hosts Ericka Burroughs-Girardi and Beth Silver introduce themselves and the theme for the podcast: social solidarity. Burroughs-Girardi and Silver explore how our lives and fates are interconnected, whether obvious or not. And they discuss how they discovered a connection that shaped their lives before they were even born.

Just in: We’ve dropped a six-episode series on the racial wealth gap on our new podcast, In Solidarity.

Hosts Ericka Burroughs-Girardi and Beth Silver interview authors, activists and scientists to investigate the history of the racial wealth divide, its insidious and far-reaching implications for the health of Black Americans in particular, and the evidence-based solutions that could close the divide. Each discussion centers on how our lives and fates are interconnected and what that means for improving health and well-being for everyone.

Listen to all six episodes now. And subscribe to keep up with In Solidarity as we explore connections in public health.
