Honoring Black History Through Health Equity

February is Black History Month, a time to celebrate the resilience, achievements, and cultural wealth of the Black community. But it’s also a reminder of the need for health equity in the ongoing fight for justice.

Black Americans face disparities in:

• Access to healthcare

• Preventive screenings

• Chronic disease management (e.g., diabetes, heart disease)

To change the narrative, we must:

- Challenge systemic racism in healthcare

- Support equity in health organizations

- Amplify Black voices in medical research and wellness conversations
