|
| This course will address a range of key public health issues affecting people of color. We will also consider the incidence of health disparities within the black community in comparison to other racial and ethnic groups. Through class assignments based on the examination of current events, videos, and class readings we will seek to interpret how various socio-economic conditions such as access to healthcare, poverty, housing, and homicide precipitate behavioral and mental health issues among African Americans, especially children |
