About this event: As part of the Campaign for the Culture, we are hosting a series of conversations. Join us virtually on April 28, 2021, for our next conversation on the topic of health disparities and tobacco use. It will take place as COVID-19 continues to disproportionately impact Black Americans and other communities of color. COVID-19 has laid bare the disparities in a health care system that has historically overlooked and underserved communities of color. And it has brought tobacco use – one of the major public health challenges facing these communities – to the forefront. Hearing from young people will be key in developing effective strategies to loosen Big Tobacco’s death grip on our communities. During this conversation, we will discuss the prevalence of chronic health issues in communities of color and the mental health toll of dealing with this reality. |
