Fighting Back While Black: The Relationship Between Racialised Resistance and Well-Being - in 'Doing Equity and Diversity for Success in Higher Education'

It did not take long for this to become evident to me.

Student doctor Ivan Beckley talks about the systemic bias in healthcare that he's witnessed during his education.

This is The Bias Diagnosis - an Audible Original Podcast. Statistics show that black and people of colour have worse health outcomes, and die more often than white people, across many fields of medicine and variety of illnesses. Ivan’s search for answers takes him to the roots of modern medicine. He busts myths, debunks stereotypes and calls out misinformation that have existed for centuries and remain sadly very much alive today.
