Namaste,

My Humanities in Medicine DEI, diversity, equity, and inclusion family,

Dr. Watson here for this week’s Humanities in Medicine DEI Weekly Wrap Up!

This episode provides a moment of mindfulness meditation and a healing auditory container of sanctuary in support of BIPOC, allied, and other marginalized populations withstanding socioeconomic macro and microaggressions. The episode focuses on mental health challenges birthed from the occupational and psychological sequelae of hostile, exclusionary circumstances in professional environments in the dignified spirit of social justice exemplified by the inspiring story of JFK, RFK, & retired Air Force Captain and African American space flight pioneer Ed Dwight, who made history as the oldest human being associated with space flight via Bezos’ Blue Origin.
