The Gang is Back in ATL

Together again, the team unpacks urgent issues shaping Black health today, from maternal care policies to community resilience after disaster.

"Reunited and it feels so good..." Matt, Mercie, Khadijah and Paulah are all in Atlanta and back on the mic for this episode of the BLKHLTH podcast.

We talk prisoners in South Carolina not being evacuated for Hurricane Florence; latest policies for black women's health and maternal and child health; the high rates of homicide of transgender people; and the impact of adverse childhood experiences.
