Can Reparations Close the Racial Health Gap?
November 3 @ 8:00 am - 6:00 pm

In partnership with Harvard Public Health magazine, the FXB Center for Health and Human Rights will host a full-day symposium on anti-Black racism and health, asking the question: Can Reparations Close the Racial Health Gap?
This symposium will examine how structural racism shapes health and whether reparations can be a potential solution or significant step towards closing the Black-white health gap. The focus will be on the role that the public health community can play in the ongoing conversation on reparations at local and national levels, as well as contributions that can be made through scholarly research and policy translation. Panelists will bring a wide range of expertise with backgrounds in law, history, policy, media, and community organizing.
