Racism is killing Black people, and Emergency Room Physician Dr. Uché Blackstock is working tirelessly to course correct. Her New York Times best-selling book "Legacy" is meant to educate the masses about the systemic inequity affecting patients and those wishing to be healthcare providers. She joins The Blackest Questions as a history maker to discuss some of the forgotten Black heroes in medicine and encourage people to take control of their health and fight for better representation. The rising mortality rate for Black babies and their mothers is a standout in the conversation as Dr. Greer and Dr. Uché examine the issue's direct link to racism.
