<\/a><\/h2>\n<\/h2>\nStatement of Purpose \u2013<\/h3>\n
The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the inequities that have long existed within health and society.\u00a0 Across the years, many have pointed to the current system and pushed for a more inclusive future. A future that is made more urgent by the current health crisis.\u00a0 As aspiring medical professionals, we the students of the Geisel School of Medicine, would like to ask, where do we go from here?\u00a0 What does healing look like for those most marginalized in healthcare?\u00a0 What can we do so that all of our communities can begin to heal?\u00a0 How can we remain vigilant as the effects of the pandemic continue?<\/p>\n
Everyone is welcome to our virtual celebration at:\u00a0 https:\/\/dartgo.org\/geisel-mlk<\/a><\/h3>\nSATURDAY, JANUARY 16th<\/h3>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/geiselmed.dartmouth.edu\/dice\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2021\/01\/Dr_Daniel_Baxter.jpg\")

Presenter:\u00a0 Daniel Baxter MD, Internal Medicine Specialist, Mount Sinai Morningside<\/p>\n
As the HIV pandemic has shown, chronic healthcare disparities have inflicted immense suffering in marginalized communities of color, and the current COVID-19 crisis has further compounded these inequities, which challenge us in our everyday clinical interactions with our patients.<\/p>\n
Dr. Baxter is an Internal Medicine Specialist in New York, NY and has over 45 years of experience in the medical field. He graduated from University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in 1975. He is affiliated with Mount Sinai Morningside.<\/p>\n

<\/a>2:15 PM - 3:15 PM<\/h4>\nThe COVID-19 Pandemic & Health Inequalities: An Opportunity for a Radical Revolution in Healthcare<\/h4>\n
Presenter:\u00a0Roy Wade, Jr., MD, PhD, MPH, MSHP \u2013 General Pediatrician, Children\u2019s Hospital of Philadelphia Cobbs Creek; Instructor of Pediatrics, University of Pennsylvania<\/p>\n
Racial and socioeconomic disparities in COVID-19 diagnosis are superimposed upon and have the potential to worsen historical inequities in the United States. Lessons learned from the current COVID-19 pandemic provide an opportunity for healing and reshaping of our current healthcare system to better serve historically marginalized populations.<\/p>\n
Dr. Wade is an instructor of pediatrics at the University of Pennsylvania and a general pediatrician at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Cobbs Creek Primary Care. He has a PhD in Microbiology from the Georgia Institute of Technology. He received his medical degree from Dartmouth Medical School, completing his pediatric residency at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, VA. After residency, Dr. Wade completed a Commonwealth Fund Harvard Minority Health Policy Fellowship at the Harvard School of Medicine and Harvard School of Public Health earning a MPH in Health Policy and Management. He completed a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Clinical Scholars Fellowship at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n
7:00 PM\u00a0 - 8:30 PM \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 UNMUTED<\/strong><\/p>\nCOVID-19 has impacted every aspect of our day-to-day lives\u2013physically, economically, socially, and educationally. As part of the Geisel School of Medicine 2021 MLK Day Celebration, we created UNMUTED, a platform for community members to share their stories and reflect on the myriad ways the pandemic has impacted them. This could include stories of illness, financial struggles, mental health, and silver linings.<\/p>\n
We hope that this time will help to eliminate the anonymity of the COVID-19 crisis in our community and bring us closer together. To that end, we invite you to submit proposals for a 3-5 minute performance in any creative format --story, essay, spoken word, song, video, or dance -- to be shared in a live stream with the community at large. Performances can be submitted anonymously and shared live, read by the event\u2019s Emcees, or pre-recorded.<\/p>\n

<\/a>11:00 AM - 12:00 PM<\/h4>\nMore than ever:\u00a0\u201cOf all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.\u201d \u2013 Dr. Martin Luther King<\/h4>\n
Presenter:\u00a0 Agnes Binagwaho, MD, M(Ped), PhD \u2013 Rwandan Pediatrician; Vice Chancellor of the University of Global Health Equity; Senior Advisor to the Director General of the WHO; US National Academy of Medicine member; fellow of the African Academy of Sciences<\/p>\n
COVID-19 did not create the inequalities and the social, structural violence that prevents individuals from practicing their rights to health but has rather significantly exacerbated them. Similarly, COVID-19 did not create preconditions but has killed hundreds\u00a0of thousands of people based on these preconditions. While the\u00a0elderly are the most vulnerable, we cannot forget the increased vulnerability and the damages faced by minorities due to preexisting socioeconmic injustices, as well as the bad leadership that is responsible for all of this. If we are to bring an end to injustice in healthcare for this crisis and prepare for any future global health threat, we need governance structures centered on wellness and inclusiveness.<\/p>\n
Professor Binagwaho is a Rwandan pediatrician and the Vice Chancellor of the University of Global Health Equity. She worked for 20 years in the public health sector in Rwanda, serving in high-level government positions from 2002-2016 as the Executive Secretary of Rwanda's National AIDS Control Commission, then as Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Health, and then for five years as Minister of Health. She is currently the Senior Advisor to the Director General of the World Health Organization, a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School, an Adjunct Clinical Professor of Pediatrics at Dartmouth\u2019s Geisel School of Medicine, a Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Global Health Equity, a member of US National Academy of Medicine and a fellow of the African Academy of Sciences.<\/p>\n
