Show Notes
Health misinformation is a growing challenge, as social media has become a primary source of information for many people, and influential voices are casting doubt on established medical practices.
Trusted health sources are becoming harder to find, especially in communities of color where access to care is already limited and systemic barriers persist.
The fight to bring reliable health information and resources to vulnerable communities is not new. For decades, organizations like the Arthur Ashe Institute for Urban Health have been doing this work — building trust, educating communities and empowering individuals to take charge of their health.
To learn more, we spoke with Dr. Marilyn Fraser, Chief Executive Officer of the Arthur Ashe Institute for Urban Health. Dr. Fraser speaks with Movement Is Life’s Conchita Burpee.
